\nFirst performance: 19 March 1979 \u2013 Grand Auditorium of Radio-France,
\nIna-GRM\u2019s Cycle Acousmatique. .<\/p>\n
\nDistance, speed, pressure, density, temperature, colour, intensity, are the \u201cthemes\u201d of the 27 short interconnected cells flowing together though this seemingly unified movement.
\nOccasionally, a breach in the texture reveals skyes dotted with little comets. In the centre, a slow gliding picks up the distant harmonics of a basic chord. Toward the end, this gliding returns with a fiery burst.
\nFine lines and whirs are generated from the song of a spinning antique top.
\nTo end on a lighter note the title Toupie dans le ciel \u2013 Spinning Top in the Sky reminds us of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by The Beatles as well as Lucy, the oldest Australopithecine (3 million years), our African grandmother in the Erosphere\u2026<\/p>\n
