My poetic tribute to the Gliese 581 star system, which I first posted on FA in March, 2010, and brought over here when I moved last November, which you may find here:
I've been wanting to record this since I wrote it, so I said "F*** it, I'm pulling out the ol' Blue Snowball and fire up Audacity, and put this to bits & bytes!" So here it is. :) Some noise reduction was done, because the refrigerator decided to be noisy, so you might notice some artifacting in the recording.
Anyhoo, if any listener wants to pop in a music bed or mix for this reading, be my guest and let me know, and I'll add the version to this submission. :)
Audio editor: Audacity (under MacOSX 10.4.11) Microphone: Blue Snowball USB mic w/Blue Ringer & stand
