Saz and stuff

Yesterday I put up a 'long saz form' which I had just played; it sounded fine when I was playing it, but awful on playback. I took it out and made a second piece with the same title, overwriting the first. The long-necked saz has 8 strings, 3/2/3 tuned in fifths, but in such a way that they 'circulate' - the low strings have trebles higher than the next rank and so on. So strange resonances are created. I had the instrument adjusted and reworked by Amir Vahab and the frets are now really accurate; this makes a difference on saz which uses untempered scales. So I like what I did and if anyone wants to work with it, I'd greatly appreciate it of course. Here's the accompanying text and links in any case -


Long Saz Form reworked

yes, in capitals, remaking the piece with the
microphones near the sound-hole door, less
buzzing, better quality, almost angelic in its
beauty, i'm very happy with this instrument.
so this is a new piece of the angelic order:

" all the way from one site to another,
angelic hosts playing tears of speech or
phenomena, o angelic absolutions...

" not-i not-don't not-know not-the not-angelic.
not-i not-don't not-know the darkness and despair,
that dark blueblue of the angelic sky...

" o angelic orders your streamers descend your streams
universal plasma is never angelic
  o angelic orders your streamers descend your streams
universal plasma is never angelic

" and the third  lends itself to the angelic,
flight above, o angelic sky,\ stopped, then, day,
clear summer cool, animals, dirt, and the

" angelic world of elegies, we were transported
  angelic world of elegies, we were transported"
