The Symbol
The self–reflecting twin snakes Ida & Pingala, in eternal dance. Their monadic unification is derived from the rod of Hermes (a.k.a. Thoth, Enoch, Idris, &c — a key figure in ancient Kemet).This image is then placed upon what is known as Metatron’s Cube — which is the simplest geometric expression of all known forms of the Platonic solids.
Note that the snakes cross paths in 7 different places —an eternal, recursive, and self–referential pattern.
The Meaning
μετά (meta, prefix): a concept that is an abstraction behind another concept, used to complete or add to the latter.
e.g. Metadata. Metamorphosis. Meditation. Metallic. Medication. Mediation. Medical. Metaphysics.
Album: As Above, So Below.
Take a sonic trip inside the schizo-affective mind of Kenneth Reitz.
Like reading a great book or enjoying an incredible film, As Above, So Below is a work of art. Intricate tapestries painted with an unmatched palette of electronic music wizadry.
A synthonic free-for-all. Rhythm-centric. An exploration of electro sounds. Infinite State’s (i.e., Kenneth Reitz’s) latest album, As Above, So Below, is simultaneously a sonic exploration of both peace of mind—and a restless heart. Neither content—nor yearning—for too long, the collection is both reassuring and curious; soothing and stimulating. Electro-heads will find something of value here.
