what a great album! especially the last track. i love this magic window. every time i hear it, it makes me go crazy! awesome! i think they should make a remix album. it would be great if they make a video too.
it's one of the best and most intelligent tracks i've ever heard. boc rue the whirl !

I found something really crazy about this track...Personally I like to turn it up as loud as possible in my headphones....
Now I know theres NOTHING there, but sometimes you can just shut your eyes and imagine the perfect ending image for the album....
BOC Forever!!

tell me nice headphones, please. and one more thing. what was that thing with the megabytes of geogaddi? cause 66:06 minutes are about 580 mb. no 6's around.
is it possible that this magic window is some kinda min/mb freak, i mean not the usual relation between min's and mb's??
is it technically possible?

The first performance of John Cage's 4'33" created a scandal. Written in 1952, it is Cage's most notorious composition, his so-called "silent piece". The piece consists of four minutes and thirty-three seconds in which the performer plays nothing. At the premiere some listeners were unaware that they had heard anything at all. It was first performed by the young pianist David Tudor at Woodstock, New York, on August 29, 1952, for an audience supporting the Benefit Artists Welfare Fund -- an audience that supported contemporary art.
if your hooked on all this electronica avant guard stuff the works of classical musician John Cage are something to listen to in amazement!

According to this page, Gaddi was a biblical character whose name meant "my fortune". Strange though it may seem to put together a word from Greek and Hebrew elements, taking this meaning of Gaddi would give one interpretation of Geogaddi as "The earth is my fortune".

I did a google search for "greek gaddi" because I knew the geo- prefix was greek, so I wanted to found out what the gaddi part meant. I came across a result that contained the Hebrew definition; so I searched for "gaddi hebrew" just to check, and that was one of the results.
I'm probably wrong - it seems likely that the whole word is greek in origin. But it's a nice idea anyway.

Magic window is best on the vinyl, at least you get some sounds of you put the pickup on it =)
For you who doesn't have the vinyl, there is a relief of two naked adults and two children. I think its the same symbol that is on the space-thingie viking(i think its called) thats floating around in space looking for somebody to pick it up.
I also found the same symbol on the limited edition cd, inside the pocket where the cd is located. Meaby there is one on the regular version too?

I don't know BoC. But their new album seems to be really good. What does geogaddi sound like? Can you compare it to some aphex tracks?
Maybe I'll buy it.

Why did you end the album with a track which contains 74 seconds of
total silence, and why the title "magic window" ?
Marcus: A magic window is an odd frequency that has peculiar effects
on you or your surroundings. That track is not complete silence.

Yeah I 've bought Geogaddi in HMV today. Also bought a german bossanova/brazil compilation, it has some scratch or something on the CD surface, so it must be returned.
I hope Geogaddi is not used as this one. They were wrapped, so it is a surprise to me. HMV sucks.
