Saturns Rings. Dust or Cosmic LP

I was profoundly struck by some images of Saturn that Sir Patrick Moore was presenting on TV and I had a revelation..The Rings of Saturn have fascinated me from Cradle to Dole Queue and on studying them tonight, strike me as a valid and viable form of data-stream, akin in many respects to the grooves on a vinyl LP or the digital binary spiral track of a DVD or CD.THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN HELP.! I would love to hear any thoughts on the possibility of setting about attempting to create a musical analogue, accurately interpreted from Hi res images taken of Saturn’s rings; We have all at one time or another had scratched or messed up Vinyl discs or cds.. etc. Right.? And we all know it still always at the very least sounds like SOMETHING, no matter how distorted or random the damage or distortion.My bet is:- That if someone is prepared to stamp a scaled down image of Saturn’s rings and join each rotation to it’s sub neighbour on a piece of black vinyl and I pop it into my Granddad’s gramophone we are going to hear either the secret of the genesis of life in our universe or The Colonel’s secret recipe - in Saturn-Ian. Or, at the very worse something better than, anything from the pop 90s Charts.I know this sounds a little ‘April fool!’, buts that’s just how I roll.Who’s with me?

PS. it doesn’t need to be the vinyl idea it will in all probability have to be digital..Sincere Musical and Scientific Hugs Big G.
