Subj: Info about winter~1.zip - self-executing soundtrack

I am not sure if the 7plus message contained this info so I am posting it
seperately:
This executable will self-unpack into ~500MB RAM as it precalculates the
audio which is just over 6 minutes long, so it will appear to hang while it
does this. The exe is created using a piece of compression software called
Crinkler created by peers of mine in the digital arts scene known as the
demoscene, which has since unfortunatly been misused by some malicious
cretins to obfuscate malware, this is why it may trigger some anti-virus
software.
However you have my personal assurances that any such warnings are a false-
alarm and that this is a safe-to-run executable.
The piece of music was composed for the NASA Juno mission, and is used in an
art production which has been featured on the NASA Juno project's website
here: https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing?id=2709 titled:
Gravity Assist. It is also planned to be broadcast from a new cubesat
sometime in 2019, a highly anticiapted competition entry for an arts event.
The execuable form of the music comes in at just under 5kb, so I thought
perfect for sending to all amateurs via 7plus.
It will run under Wine for Linux as well.
The music was composed in one night, via the PC keyboard using a digital
studio called Renoise. The synthesizer is actually custom made for making
small executable music and was written by peers of mine for their own
digital art productions. The synthesizer is called Clinkster and is totally
free, although very basic it is very (as you will hopefully hear) versatile.
It comes with the assembly converter, which compiles it into executable
form. This is normally used to make 4kb combined music and visual
experiences, however I am only a musician and needed more space for the
music, no pun intended, NASA.
Hope you all have a wonderful christmas & prosperous new year.
