Arriving home from work I found a lone email in my otherwise bare inbox. And so, one of those lonely days, I found a frequency where this strange music was playing. I used to turn on my old tube radio to fill the emptiness with music somehow. Thirty-six million civilizations, yet in almost a century of listening, we hadn’t heard a thing.
