Scrambles of Earth: The Voyager Interstellar R ecord, R emixed by Extraterrestrials.
The Center For Inquiry is celebrating Carl Sagan Day today, coincidentally the same day that Seeland Records releases its SETI-X project which presents remixes of the material from the Voyager Interstellar Record launched into space by NASA in 1977. In the wake of the viral success of the YouTube video of an autotuned Carl Sagan signing “A Glorious Dawn” (which Jack White of The White Stripes released in 2009 as a 45R PMR ecords label,) this disc fills in more background info on Sagan’s other foray into sound: the Voyager Interstellar R ecord.
In 1977, NASA launched the Voyager 1 & 2 spacecraft, fastening to each a phonograph album containing sounds and music of Earth. In 2010, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence in Exile (SETI-X), a dissident offshoot of the better-known Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, received transmissions believed to be extraterrestrial remixes of these records. The Scrambles of Earth CD contains the 70 minutes — in some 24 sound segments — that SETI-X has so far been able to reconstruct.
The Voyager InterstellarR ecord, a collection of Earth sound and music sent into space (WIKI), is a noted cultural artifact — with a long life in popular imagination and culture: from references in Star Trek, X-Files, Futurama, The Transformers series, kids shows (3-2-1 Contact on YOUTUBE) to The Strokes video for “You Only Live Once” (LINK).
Scrambles of Earth collects what appear to be “remixes” of the Voyager Record; although the evidence has yet to be fully evaluated, these may represent the first audio signs of alien intelligence. This account may comport with Hartwig Hausdorf’s May 2010 claim that the Voyager has been hijacked by aliens, as reported in theUK Stefan Helmreich , who produced the science-and-technology oriented Xerophonics: Copying Machine Music, if he might comment on this CD.
