Description
Norman Lederman - Stereofernic Orchidstra - Extremely hard to find experimental / electronic 7" on the Sounds Reasonable, Inc. label with pic sleeve
From sleeve back:
"Are plants intelligent? Can humans communicate with botanic beings? No one knows for sure.
"Side One of this records represents a non-scientific effort to record the complex electro-chemical activity of an Indian azalea, a philodendron, a Boston fern and an amaryllis. The four plants are heard in the above order. They were recorded using a specially constructed "plant amplifier" at the U.S. Botanical Gardens on separate tracks of a professional four channel tape recorder. The "sounds" of each plant have been mixed together to form a composite stereo sound. There have been no special electronic effects added.
"Side Two uses the same recording; however, each of the plants' signals have been fed into a massive electronic music synthesizer. The result is presented as musique concrete. Both the human wave form musician and the plants control the synthesizer's output."
