Jonn Recently appeared on the Hearts Rise Up Podcast with Carol Chapman. You can listen below!
Here are some great quotes from the episode:
“Sometimes the hardest step is the first note… I do everything I can to trick myself into making that first note as painless as it can be—no second thoughts.”
"If I were to define what the Creator sounds like—He is silence. Real power comes from silence.” “I want somebody to reach behind the note and look at it from behind the note. That’s where the surprise lives.” “The voice of creativity is playful, like a child whispering just above your head."“Synthesizers will do anything you tell them to. That’s the blessing and the danger. You must ask the right questions.” “You’re not learning how to be a technician of music. You’re learning that the technique is built into this joyful moment of creation.” “Music is received, not generated. Sometimes all I hear is, ‘Follow this.’ Or sometimes it’s, ‘Now… show me what you’ve got.’” “There’s a ghost in space whispering, ‘Come closer, come closer… you’re getting it.’ That’s where the textures live.” “Practice, even if it’s scales—because what you’re really practicing is presence, not perfection.” Jonn Serrie, a pioneer in electronic music, discusses the intersection of sound and space. His work spans various industries, including composing music for planetariums, films, and the medical community. Jonn believes that music is the language of the infinite and that synthesizers allow for communication with interdimensional beings. He also shares his experiences with UFO sightings and the importance of the planetarium industry in educating young minds about space. In this conversation, Robert and Jonn Serrie discuss the role of planetariums as educational tools and classrooms. They explore how planetariums provide a unique and immersive experience for students to learn about various scientific concepts. They also touch on the use of sound in planetarium shows and the challenge of creating music that evokes the feeling of the infinite. The conversation then shifts to John's work with Lucasfilm and the movie 'What the Bleep Do We Know?' which aimed to push the boundaries of knowledge and present big ideas to a wide audience. They discuss the use of silence as a musical instrument and the importance of intention and curiosity in engaging with the universe of sound. The conversation concludes with a reflection on the intersection of science, technology, engineering, math, and music, and the profound understanding of reality that can be achieved through the exploration of these fields.
Available 2-23-2024  In my long music career, Space and Meditation have always been the seeds of my inspiration. Ascendant Destiny portrays the textured motions of time and distance that merge into visionary experiences. I spend much time in deep meditation and contemplation when creating my music, and with this, my latest work, I have tried to create a journey through both time and space. I want the listener to experience a unique feeling of immersion amongst the wonders of the universe. I invite you to take the journey with me.
