A Symphony of the Stars
Cosmic Ray Audio & Light Reactive Installation:
Sacred Resonance
Cosmic ray detectors (muon detectors), lights, speaker
Code developed by Sacred Resonance in Max/MSP and Ableton Live
Detector built by Robert Hart www.cosmicray.com.au
The array of three cosmic ray detectors captures particles called muons, which are particles generated naturally from cosmic rays that originate from the stars and beyond. When cosmic rays collide with our atmosphere, muons are produced as a by-product. As a muon passes through the detector, it simultaneously triggers the Geiger tubes. The detector utilises Geiger Muller tubes to measure cosmic radiation, and then translates these patterns into sound.
The Celestial Tree transforms these invisible forces into a real-time digital symphony of light, sound and art. As the detector identifies muons, the installation responds—illuminating the space and composing a celestial soundscape.

About Kim Bellette – Stone and Wood Artist
Kim has spent an entire lifetime involved in and around the Art’s and Antique interests, working professionally in Adelaide for over 35 years. He was taught the Art of Woodcarving/Sculpting by his Grandfather Rollo Haskard, himself a second generation Woodcarver/Sculptor and Master Craftsman with additional skills as a wood turner and Landscape painter. Kim’s interest started as a child designing and constructing items and watching his Grandfather’s pieces take shape. Kim has also studied Commercial Art and Industrial Design and even taught Woodcarving at TAFE part time for a short period, also using Art as a Modality with a Diploma in both Art Therapy and Counselling. Kim also teaches Limestone Sculpture at the Centre for Rare Arts and Forgotten Trades Ballarat Vic.
Being a sixth generation Australian, and having spent his developing years within the Mitcham Hills, has forged respect for the connection between man and nature. A belief in the need to nurture and develop the Ancient traditions of creating in wood and associated materials has driven him to strive for perfection in design and technique, and sees his role as an Artist to use the original beauty of nature, not only to extend it to a more permanent object of inspirational beauty and pleasure, but also to express the fragility of the source of this beauty and its vulnerabilities to humanity.
Kim’s projects have ranged from a Cedar of Lebanon pendant to busts, figures, a Church Reredos wall of carving, with various other Church, Cathedral and Ecclesiastical works.
His favourite subjects are Native bird life and the morals behind the stories of Classical Mythology. His passion also extends to Clay, Terracotta, Plaster and Limestone Sculptures, both Classical and Abstract themes, from coffee table size to Landscape, with the stone itself communicating the form it wishes to take. Forest waste is a paradox with even the smallest of pieces transformed into art, and the resonance of millennium life forms exude from his Limestone pieces.

The Ascent of Spring
Celestial Gardens Sculpture Installation
Curated by Jessica Curtis
An indoor, site-specific sculpture garden exploring the concept of the Gardens of Paradise. Bringing Heaven to Earth; uplifting through beauty, hope, love, peace, and joy.
In the higher worlds it is said there are glowing trees, crystalline waters, fruits that give eternal life and healing, flowers that sing heavenly music, choirs of butterfly, mountains that speak and all life forms live together in harmony, grace, and peace.
During these challenging times we all need more love, peace, and joy. The aim of this show is to create a sacred sanctuary of creative, light, colour and form to inspire and uplift the community. To help people reconnect to their inner creative essence.
The world’s mystical traditions have stories of sacred gardens, forests, sanctuaries, worlds/heavens with sacred rivers fountains, ponds, and pools. These spiritual places are alive and teaming with Life full of beautiful birds, butterflies, whales, dolphins, and other sacred animals. Here nature is Supernature; water, fruits and herbs have divine healing properties. The elements are Alive, living entities; each tree, plant, animal, body of water, mountain, has its own unique voice often communicating through higher gifts like telepathy, dreams, colour, light and music!
“Awake, O north wind, And come, wind of the south; Make my garden breathe out fragrance, Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden And eat its choice fruits!” ~Solomon, 4:16 Song of Song~
Humankind, throughout the ages has experienced these sacred places in mystical visions, dreams, meditations or via a direct experience such as; near death experiences (NDE), the Light Vehicles/Merkabah and Beings of Light.
Music is a theme that repeats again and again in stories about the heavenly gardens; the buzzing of bees, rushing of waters, bells, celestial choirs, harps and string instruments. The music of the Spheres, the heavenly worlds. These are places where one communicates with the angels and beings of Light receiving revelation and Divine Wisdom.
In both ancient and contemporary times, the designs of gardens, parklands and woodlands of monasteries, temples, churches, and even royal and public gardens have often been designed based on the perfection of the heavenly garden, and sacred geometry of creation. Humanity has reflected this throughout history through our art, design and architecture. These same divine proportions of the Golden Ratio, Phi and Pi are also reflected in our bodies and the patterns of growth and regeneration in all of nature from subatomic particles to the galaxy disruption in our universe.
The metaphor of the garden can be applied to all of nature; all levels of creation nurture Life and Birth on some level, from the microscopic worlds, with our bodies, to the birthplace of stars in the galactic nurseries of Pleiades and Orion.
Our earth is a special planetary garden where nature mirrors the perfection of the Supernature, of the Heavens. However, we have fallen out of harmony with the divine balance and lost control of the biosphere of our planet. But through reconnecting with nature and Supernature we can regain our roles as sacred care takers of the Garden of Gaia. There are many communities around the world embracing this and learning to live in a higher harmony with nature through the art of permaculture.
The modern concept of permaculture was first created here is Australia, in 1978 by David Holmgren, then a graduate student at the Tasmanian College of Advanced Education, Department of Environmental Design and Bill Mollison, senior lecturer in Environmental Psychology at University of Tasmania. Bill Mollison described Permaculture as “a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted and thoughtless labour; and of looking at plants and animals in all their functions, rather than treating any area as a single product system.” It is a philosophy of how we work with nature, our community and the planet.
“I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh along with my balsam. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. Eat, friends; Drink and imbibe deeply, O lovers.” ~Solomon, Song of Songs 5~
Gaia is the Earth mother that created all beings according to Hesiod’s Theogony of 700BC. All her children were created with thought, purpose and intent. It is the divine geometry, the mathematical code of perfection found throughout nature interconnects all to Life. The greater mathematical unfoldment of creation, the divine coding of all life, is inherent within Gaia to preserve and ensure the continuance of all life. All life is based on these divine codes, the geometry of perfection. May we come to appreciate and understand our planet as a Divine Gift, a beautiful and delicate blue-green jewel given to us to nurture, love and cherish.
“As the bee collects nectar and departs without injuring the flower, or its colour or fragrance, so let the sage dwell on earth.” ~Gautama Buddha~
