Seirenes was made with Construct 2. The windchimes sounds were recorded by Philip Goddard. I also used Geraeusch recording of waves reaching a beach in Lofoten, Kerri’s recording of a quiet night at lake Michigan, Loofa’s burman gongs, and last but not least, Missozzy’s recordings of “her friend’s laughter”. The frieze comes from Josette’s blog, and the black runner figure from the UCL website, although I’m not sure of who designed them. The argonauts listing was found on Wikipedia. Orpheus among the Thracians was painted on a column krater around 450BC. I used Savae’s performance of the song of Seikilos. The song is the oldest surviving example of a complete musical composition and its lyrics translate as such :

As long as you live, shine,
Let nothing grieve you beyond measure.
For your life is short,
and time will claim its toll.
