Radulescus’s Sound Plasma, demonstrate a large set of techniques about how transformation, relationship of sonic results work. However, it sets an interesting way to understand some of the ideas about processes of how to change the perception of the audience.
Notes:
‘The sound in itself is an endless ocean of vibrations.” Curiously, he refers that this waves are being treated from its outside combining more and less into “monody, homophony, polyphony and heterophony."
Next, he says: "This historically exhausted DISCONTINUANCES which consisted in the use of sounds as points and lines, of mode steps (scales), of rhythm, of modal and tonal gravity centres, etc, succeeded in entering the sound cosmos through Webern, the serial music, having achieved an imponderability state of sound.”
- "ACTION and PANTOMIME with sounds, classic characteristics of musical dramaturgy are still increasing and hypertrophying. Although the vulgar trend has been towards a primary rhythmic music, and the ‘modern’ music meant an exaggerated use of percussion the field of PURE MUSIC has acquired more deeply continuous ‘sounds beings’ such as Ligeti’s ATMOSPHERES and especially Stockhausen’s STIMMUNG.”
- “ ‘ENTER THE SOUND, PLAY THERE AND FROM THERE’ represents an aim of music, a tendency which could transform UTOPIA into REALITY and vice versa. This aim and form of existence of the music implies first CONTINUANCE"
- “In the REGISTER OCEAN (the global frequency band, i.e. from 16 up to 20,000 c/sec) there are no longer steps, interval jumps, chords, etc, but discreetly gliding and trembling narrow frequency band vibrating (living) sound plasma.”
- “DURATION, by the lack of clear (explicite) APPEARANCE and DISAPPEARANCE is infinitely long or short, and no more an element of comparison.
Hence RHYTHM, exists no longer as combined values, but only as SPECTRUM PULSE of the micro & macro sound plasma, or as an INFRASONIC TREMBLING of the non-evident sound lava.
DYNAMIC, follows the same of law of eco-involution, as far as continuances concerns frequency, amplitude and phase as an unique phenomenon.
TIMBRE, is a consequence of the SPECTRUM PULSE, of the multi-directional EVO-INVOLUTION within the cardinal points of the sound compass, and of the synthesis of the global sound source (I/O, L, H, N, E).
“CARDINAL POINTS OF THE SOUND COMPASS”
’The relatively infinite space in which sounds occur could be defined through the following CARDINAL POINTS:

The MICRO-PULSE of the SOUND PLASMA, operating on the harmonic resonance formats (overtones) of the NARROW FREQUENCY BAND, and producing colour changes, SOUND SPECTRUM, CONSISTENCY, QUALITY, SPACE is the result of a NATURALLY IRREGULAR and BI - or - MULRI-DIRECTIONAL evo-involuntion between and within Noise and Sound.
Noise, means unclearness, wave unperiodicity, irregularity, opaque spectrum, confusion between fundamentals and harmonics, i.e. between NARROW FREQUENCY BAND and its EMANATION (harmonic aureole), co-existence of more than a single narrow frequency band as fundamental, etc.
Sound pole represents CLEARNESS, wave periodicity, regularity, serene spectrum, etc.
The MACROPULSE of the sound PLASMA gives to the music its DENSITY, QUANTITY, TIME and represents a NATURALLY IRREGULAR and BI - or MULTI-DIRECTIONAL eco-involution between and within Width and Element.
Width, means WIDE ATMOSPHERES OF AGGLOMERATE AND DENSE SOUND PLASMA.
Element refers to A NARROW BAND OF RAREFIED sound plasma.
We can imagine as extreme limits of this space: sine wave and white noise, and on the other oblique axis: sound plasma texture and narrowest noise band (image 1 and 2)

Although these cardinal points of the sound compass could also verify the traditional music and the natural sound events, such as:

SPECTRUM PULSE
Is a function of the sound evolution within its space, between noise and sound. The narrow frequency band emanates an aureole of harmonics (partials or overtones), and this harmonic spectrum should be reinforced to became as ‘visible’ as possible.
Into this spectrum the presence (appearance and disappearance), the intensity and the quality of the harmonics follow a continuous process of transformations which gives and sustains its life, the SPECTRUM PULSE.
MACRO AND MICRO SOUND PLASMA
The form (architecture) of the music, is given by the sound MACRO PLASMA.
This is the result of the macro pulse which operates on the sound micro plasmas. In other words the spectrum pulse of the harmonics oh an NFB (Narrow Frequency Band) is a micro model of form. Thus the articulation of the micro plasmas gives a Macro Pulse of evo-involution in the space designed between Width and Element.
The density, quantity per time of micro plasmas, shapes the macro pulse of the whole sound organism.
Generally, the sound micro plasma’s discreet appearance and disappearance describe a tangent like trajectory in relation to other micro plasmas.
Between W and E the macro plasma should follow a multi-directional eco-involution, and only comparing its positions at instants which are at a longer distance than 3 minutes could we notice the global tendency to E or to W:
