From a dialog between the two which was (secretly?) recorded by Jarmusch.
It kind of, comically, draws a similar parallel between the talk of psytrance=space language
Here is the exert
TW: You know what I'd like to do, I'd like to go into space with a band,
have speakers on the outside of our spacecraft, see if we can communicate.
Choose a really strange band, develop our own space program where we're
gonna actually go up, because right now the only people who are allowed to
go up there, y'know, the way they pick them is just like I guess I'm sure
the way they picked explorers.
JJ: Sun Ra has been sending signals for some time into space. That's his
life.
TW: How does he send them? I mean --
JJ: Well, just through his music.
TW: But I mean get in a spacecraft to go into space, and perform in-space
music. Because they're saying that our new program now is to actually find
hard evidence of life on other planets. That is the mission and the
doctrine of the space program today. And my feeling is that I think that we
should communicate through music. We're sending these little things that
show the anatomy of man, and our very simple numerical system, and some of
our math, and some of our makeup, scientific makeup, but I think we should
go out with a group.
JJ: Which means they'd probably send --
TW: They'd send the wrong group, yeah.
JJ: They'd send Michael Jackson, instead of you or Sun Ra.
TW: But speakers on the outside of the spacecraft, can you imagine?
JJ: It's like these kids that have their cars with sound systems so hot
that -- A mechanic told me that those subsonic, sub-woofer bass systems
loosen all the bolts and screws in the car, and the whole construction of
the car from vibration gradually will just fall apart.
and the rest is here
