Die Monde was Inspired by Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Tierkreis, a set of 12 pieces for music box based on the Zodiac signs, Die Monde is a set of 6 pieces based on the different times of the Celtic year. In the Celtic year, each section has a different mood and association correlated with it, such as windy time and song time. Each music box strip portrays some aspect of a certain time of the year. The laptops further add to the soundscape by using the microphone input of the music box to trigger certain events and sounds.
