Very interesting 1980 BBC 'Horizon' documentary on Astrology.

♥♥♥♥♥ Epic.

'The Dreams' was a collaboration between British pioneering electronic music genius Delia Derbyshire and British Artist & Playwright Barry Bermange (who recorded the narrations). Originally produced for the BBC's 'Third Programme' in 1964, the Dreams is a collage of people describing their dreams, set to a background of Delia's characteristic eerie electronic sound. The project attempt's to re-create in five movements the sensations of dreaming - running away, falling, landscape, underwater and colour.

"There’s been, since the ancient Greeks, a very close link between music and mathematics. Well, since Pythagoras in mythology. This is a sort of discipline. People think that composers sit there with their pen over the manuscript paper, and God sends his inspiration down the top of the pen onto the paper. Well, in some cases it seems perhaps they did; perhaps Mozart. But in other cases one has to impose a discipline, and the discipline of number is an excellent discipline. The Fibonacci sequence people have been using for centuries."   -   Delia Derbyshire
