The Constellations Jazz Orchestra is a conceptual electronic music project founded by musician Chris Olds, who also goes by the moniker "The Drumulator". This large-scale endeavor is anchored by the ambitious goal of composing music for all 88 Modern Constellations officially recognized by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).

Here is a detailed discussion of The Constellations Jazz Orchestra based on the sources:

I. Creator and Musical Identity

The project is the culmination of the creator's long career and personal passion:

The Creator: Chris Olds is a Performing and Recording Artist based in Glendale, CA, United States. He possesses a technical background in rhythm, having over 50 years of drumming experience and performing on drums and percussion on about 40 records with various artists. He excelled at sight-reading and playing jazz from a young age. His moniker, "The Drumulator," reflects his foundation in rhythmic precision, which is mapped onto the project's structure.

Genre: The music is classified as Electronica, and conceptually defined as Electronic/Synth Jazz Fusion. The utilization of Synthesizers and Electronica is described by the artist as the realization of a "core passion".

Future Plans: Chris Olds is currently working on developing The Constellations Jazz Orchestra into a live show.

II. Conceptual Framework: Mapping the Celestial Sphere

The Constellations Jazz Orchestra uses the IAU's standardized celestial map as its systematic scope, offering 88 compositions for 88 unique subjects
