Final Trajectory

about

As the Voyager spacecraft reaches the outer edge of our Solar System it is a fitting time to imagine the exodus from Earth of the last human being on their final trajectory towards an unknown future. There has been little effort made to prepare psychologically for this one way trip and hallucinatory voices and sounds flit around the traveller, mingling with those of the craft’s entertainment, propulsion and life support systems. Life memories, encounters and events break through the cracks of rational thought like dream fragments, in bursts of barely unrecognisable data. As the craft passes through the mid point of our planetary system on its way out, the occupant thinks they hear a message being transmitted from Earth on the permanently scanning radio receiver.….

Will this be real in our lifetimes? Is the craft being built already in the knowledge that we have little time left on this planet?
If so, where to next?

Electronic Sound Magazine wrote:

‘A seamless single piece of music lasting almost an hour, 'Final Trajectory' is the work of long-time ambient experimentalist Andrew Lagowski. There are melodic chimes, creaking noises, heavily treated tones - all-enveloping and ever-expanding - and sudden bursts of static. There's even what might be garbled alien chatter, which seems appropriate since the name SETI comes from a real-life international body called Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence. If NASA released this album and announced it was the sound of deep space, nobody would dispute it.’
