Sometimes a single tone can provide more than a whole batch of sounds. If you fiddle with ONE tone enough, you can get certain feelings that match those of the subconscious mind. For example, ELECTRIC PYLONS. They have a certain "thing", don't they? Who doesn't stare at electric pylongs and feel something? While looking at one, try making "that" electric pylone tone with a single synth note and lots of effects. It'll be a spiritual experience. Trees are good too, though pylons are more industrial and electric.

only a sine wave is a single tone, all other sounds are several

Yess, that is what i was thinking of. In any state of mind, go and take pictures of an Electric Pylon. I'm in HUngary at the moment, and they're much better here than in England. Austria and Germany had huge, wonderfully overpowering electrical pylons (and some windmills, too.) Make some ambient music out of a sine wave to pictures of electric pylons. It's a spiritual experience.

nah, sound doesn't hold the information to meaningfully represent stuff like that, unless you use sound to say its word in some form of language or morse code or something. But you as an individual might have sounds associated with visual objects in your memory through your experience, but another individual will often have different memories/ experiences (though many will also be similar since we all live in the same world. ex. everyone knows the creeking sound a tree makes when it falls) 'n shit

Sorry i couldn't come up to your album launch dude.
: (
I hope it went alright. On topic now though: I do see what you mean i don't know about the spirituality of trying to make music from their inspiration though.

Sorry, I don't remember making those posts (very cringeworthy excuse, I know) BUT there was an element of truth in them. Electric pylons are strangely majestic, not the rubbish small boring ones, but those huge ones that stretch accross endless fields of countryside. I'm surprised more album covers don't just have those on them.
