Name: Voyager at the Heliopause
Duration: P00H05M12S
Description: The Voyager 1 spacecraft is the farthest man made object from Earth. I worked on it during my PhD and was always inspired by its lonely journey into outer space. This track is inspired by that sense of quiet exploration. The lyrics are in Morse Code! The synthesizer taps out the Walt Whitman poem "Untold Want" and sends it back to us on Earth.

The untold want by life and land ne'er granted,
