I have uploaded a new version which I think fulfills the Ambient aspect of
the project. It also has some aspects of Gregorian chanting, Buddhist
chanting and Mongolian throat singing which made it into the mix. Totally
unplanned. IMO it gives the overall soundscape a very meditative feel now.
Wouldn't say meditative. The spoken word sound is too interruptive and
distracting for that. Also, the repetitive "1950's UFO sound effect"
sounds don't seem to fit that idea, either.
I do wonder what it might be like listening to a full Ambisonic version
of it, on a real Ambisonic sound rig.

Thanks for the OGG file, I wouldn't have listened again if I'd had to do
another 700MB download.
I think I have added some more conventional musical qualities with this
mix and the overall sound is quite soothing to listen too. Especially the
end section which comes over in waves which I find to be contextually
appropriate given the content of the material.
It sounds like a soundtrack for a bad 1970's psychedelic/art film.
More interesting than the first version of it, but I think I've heard
enough to decide that ambient-psy-trance isn't for me.
