Telechron Chime
Date Completed:December 25, 2001
Duration:1' 40
Instrumentation:piano - 3 (or 2) hands
Comments:for Richard and Mary King
Program Notes:Telecron Chime is a thank you note to friends Richard and Mary King who helped support the creation of Ohio Entelechron in many ways. Telechron was an early version of the name and a key musical motive, but then I discovered it had been used as a brand name for a clock and decided to complicate the meaning of my work by extending its resonances through a combination of entelechy, teleportation, and chronometry. The resulting grand concept of Ohio Entelechron, a teleportation utility, promises to provide the Ohio region with "continuous service in all dimensions."
