The two celestial bodies are tidally locked and the moon rotates at a perfect speed so that one side is always facing the earth. The audio in this piece comes from an electromagnetic frequency recorder that I took out on walks to record the hum of ambient radio waves under the light of the moon, Earth’s first satellite. Of the massive amount of electromagnetic frequencies emitted from Earth, a portion of them travel into space, get reflected off the moon, and sent back to Earth, flowing through everything and our bodies whether we are aware of it or not.
