Pythagoron Inc. 1977

There is not much information available about Pythagoron Inc. except for a long-expired P.O. Box address, which suggests that the music made available by the corporation originated from someplace in or around New York City – less than 100 miles south of Garnerville, NY, where USCO (a media art collective also known as The Company of Us) operated for most of the sixties and early seventies.

USCO belonged to a generation of eccentric psychic pioneers whose fascination with technology and mysticism resulted in the creation of mind-expanding art, infinity machines and environments. Pythagoron Inc. 1977 built on those previous efforts to rehabilitate consciousness – but this time using electronic modulations and pulsating rhythms.

Pythagoron Inc. 1977 is white noise and drum machines processed and echoplexed until any appearance of momentum is subdued and immersed in slow moving procession-like drone waves. It is 42 minutes of electronic sound synthesis that would have made an excellent soundtrack for Edmund Alleyn’s Introscaphe or Haus Ricker’s soft environments.

Pythagoron is sound-induced intoxication best experienced on your own.

Pythagoron:

“You are relaxed, lying down in a darkened room – eyes closed, your mind quiets and the sound begins – it pours through like an enveloping shower. The tones gradually become a familiar place where ethereal images and ideas flicker, then solidify. Trusting the experience you let go and the sound seems to dissolve. You couldn’t describe this space – yet it’s familiar, a personal awareness that always was slightly out of reach. Gradually it ends – an experience as varied as your consciousness.

‘Pythagoron brings you to a different place.’

Phytagoron is not just music – but sound controlled with electronic precision to alter your awareness, to get you high. Developed through years of research into the resonant interaction of sound and brainwave patterns, Pythagoron sound is unique in concept and production.”
