- "The wire was extended 80 feet through the oval of the Rotunda and was driven by one pure wave oscillator. For each side of these records a single oscillator tuning was chosen.... All changes in volume, timbre, harmonic structure, rhythmic and cyclic patterning, and other sonic phenomena were brought about solely by the normal modes of vibration of the system."--Container.
