Very interesting piece.
Musical therapy of sorts.I don't normally listen or comment on such pieces but the title caught my eye.Can I ask what the title means...Bellevue?

Blessings,

bellevue - is "beautiful view" in Italian(?) or some Romance language.

it is also an allusion to meditation and lucid dreaming - finding a clear vision.

and finally, it hints at Bellevue Hospital (New York?) famous for its psycho ward.

is right. i keep looking at the silver mylar ball and picture it undulating while everything is reflected on it's surface, and it's like the song: it's like synthetic water (that will make sense only to me). excellent piece.

that silver egg is a real thing - i think it's in Chicago.

i liked its anomalous look - like it is not real at all.

that fit perfectly.

thanks


what is synthetic water - is it like Ice Nine?

i made the original version of this May 16 2006 - it ran 33 minutes.

i remixed that one into this shorter version.

glad you enjoyed it!

thanks

I'm very
sympathetic to this idea, and I'd happily stop in for the 33 minute version (if you're ever kind enough to post it).


Very enjoyable. Thank you.

due to your prompting, i put up the original long version.

glad you liked this!

thank you

Pretty cool!
But 10 minutes is fine with me, not sure I'd have the patience for 33 ;-)

ah - but patience has nothing to do with it - it's supposed to be a static point in time and space. the really long version could be 3 days long... :-)

thanks for listening

Cool piece Bill
reminded me a bit of Reich's Come Out - and some early Laurie Anderson pieces. Really well done.

I like it. Bellevue is French for 'beautiful view'. Good work.
