about

It’s the year 2525 and mankind is fracking for gas in the New Forest, demolishing mountains for stone and draining oceans for water. All religion has dissipated after the Jerusalem Summit of 2499 agreed that the time of the idolisation of gods was over and had done more harm than good. Mankind is in crisis and the planet must be saved or it is doomed. Overpopulation and ignorance of the overwhelming evidence of man’s destructive effect on the environment has led to a do or die situation. But what is to be done......
In the New Forest in Southern England a stone tablet is discovered in marshland whilst engineers are digging down for gas. Covered in ornate symbols the tablet is carbon dated back to before the time of the dinosaurs.
Archaeologists, linguists and scientists from across the dying planet manage to decipher the codes over an 18 month period of intense study.
The tablet contains a grid reference that lies deep in outer space and shows what appears to be an object there – a prism. The Wisdom Stone (as it has become known) reveals that we must go beyond the prism in order to look back at our planet through its eyes and if we manage to attain this then the answer to how we can survive in harmony and once again prosper as a planet will be revealed to us.
Black Holes have been understood and space exploration has led us to a dead stop. Attempts at settling Mars and later Titan proved too much for the human psyche and it became clear that this is our world and this is where we must stay.
Using Black Hole Technology ( and traversing the four that we have been able to so far navigate – Titan’s Grip, The Goliath Shute, The Oiler and Dreamer’s Gate ) it is estimated that this will be a ten year round trip. After a global application was sent out Jess Fawcett and her crew of five will launch and head to deepest space to look back through The Prism.
What will it reveal ? Will they make it ?
This is the soundtrack to this story.................

about

Traiteurs London, UK

TRAITEURS
(Cajun = healers) formed in Jan 2017 to make noise. Essentially guitar bass and drums with occasional fits of vocal, the second the first fuzz bass note was struck they knew where the journey would lead - to the creation of The Prism - a soundtrack to an imaginary space film. The earth is fucked and the TRAITEURS want to heal. This is their contribution. ... more
