Summary

Hello and welcome to "Stormy Weather," a podcast of generative music and natural soundscapes with no other words than those of this brief introduction. The ninth episode is entitled Lake of Mnemosyne and is about one hour long. The composition is inspired by the text of an ancient totenpass. The totenpass or "orphic foils" were egyptian and greek sheets of gold, placed in the mouth or around the neck of the deceased and served as a passport to the realm of souls. The text of the one used for composition dates back to the fifth century B.C. and is given in full in the caption accompanying the podcast on all major platforms. All sounds and the cover image were created exclusively through the use of Artificial Intelligence. Enjoy --- You will find to the left of the houses of Hades a spring, and beside it stands erect a white cypress tree: To that spring do not even approach. But then you will find another, where cold water flows From the lake of Mnemosyne: there stand before it the Guardians. Thou sayest to them, "I am a son of Earth and starry Heaven: celestial is my lineage, and you also know it. With thirst I am burned and I fail: give me soon The cold water that flows from the lake of Mnemosyne." And they will give you drink from the divine fountain And after that with the other heroes thou shalt be sovereign. To Mnemosyne all this is sacred, when you are on the verge of death And darkness all around spreads.

    Release Date: 01/05/2022

    Authors: Aeoli Kephas

    Description: Warty Theorems (aka Wormy Theaters, aka Rosewater Myth, etc) took up where Stormy Weather left off. It is a group undertaking and part of the "Gnosis Through Crisis" program of finding and mapping archetypal narratives hidden within our personal histories. This work is currently being conducted at the SWEDARGO, the Planetary Pyscho-Theater and Existential Detection Agency, which is a private sphere of the Stormy Weather forum.Warty Theorems ended with episode 30; Vagabond Blues, its satellite-podcast, continues a while longer however. Stormy Weather was a weekly podcast that covered subjects such as shamanism, alien abduction, global conspiracies, occultism, mythology, DNA, Masonic Sorcery Theater, postmodern society, and the day-to-day struggle of the creative individual to navigate an increasingly apocalyptic environment.The show began on August 22 2008 and ended on March 21st 2009, after 30 episodes and a 7 month run.For old SW podcasts, go to the Stormy Weather site.Of
