👽 ASTRALIEN TECH // PROXIMA FREQ. 📡
An array of Australian radio telescopes yearning for a distant alien frequency from the nearby star of Proxima Centauri B had suddenly been hit by an unknown object soaring down from the cosmos.
Luckily, systems were still operational, and information was recorded throughout the event.
Unbeknownst to the operating technicians, the telescopes were now pointed in the very local direction of the unknown object...
The long-awaited alien frequency began to come through at an alarming rate and immediately operators recorded these sets of sounds and labelled the file "CONTACT".
A collaboration between two of Melbourne's underdog collectives brings an exclusive event where these technicians will be displaying the aforementioned alien frequencies.
