open call for experimental noise industrial electronic techno and procedural lullabies 

http://xname.cc/nebulullaby

Lullabies exist since antiquity in every culture and part of the world.
Their repetition induces variations in the brain state, favouring the transition between waking and sleep, or the oscillation in their liminal threshold, recalling a pre-human state, that of the uninformed existential field, the a-subjectivity (Deleuze, 1995) of the not yet human fluctuating in the womb, where sounds are muffled and scanned by the rhythms of the hearts, the two hearts temporarily connected into a single - almost supernatural - body.

Did it all explode at one time...Or, are the nebulae perpetually being form from debris in space..? (Feynman 1999)

Growing in size and complexity ... living things, masses of atoms, DNA, protein ... dancing a pattern ever more intricate. Out of the cradle onto the dry land ... here it is standing ... atoms with consciousness ... matter with curiosity. Stands at the sea ... wonders at wondering ... a universe of atoms ... an atom in the universe. (Feynman 1999) 

Newborns, it seems, are predisposed to noise music, specifically that of a fuzzy, warm, and liquid timbre. It's only later that we begin to favor harmony and melody.
(Timoty Gabriele, 2011)
