Hi there folks, The last time I wrote and mentioned this topic to any of you I was just testing to see if the one MP3 I had up on MP3.com really worked or not. A buddy of mine put it up for me (and I was thrilled, thank you Jeff Kaiser). But I didn't know for myself how well it worked (or not) because my own home computer was so slow I couldn't stream or download any of it myself. I could log on and see my silly picture (oh boy) but I couldn't actually hear a thing. However, it did seem to work pretty well for a good many of you and I thank you for your kind replies in letting me know even if you thought the music rather strange. Now armed with a faster computer and relatively high-speed access to the net I have assumed control of my MP3.com page myself and have put up even more sonic nonsense to embarrass my friends and family with. There are now a total of 11 tracks (nearly an hou's worht of music) up there at: http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/138/ted_killian.html Most of this stuff will still be unlistenable to some of you for technical reasons (some pieces are kinda longish and would take a long time to download). But online "streaming" is available if you have RealPlayer at high- and low-res levels. Others of you will still find this stuff unlistenable for other reasons... aesthetic ones no doubt. Sorry, I can't help that. But you might give it a try anyway and let me know what you think. I'm not terribly thin skinned and would appreciate the constructive feedback. As a sort of "listening guide" I thought some of you might appreciate having me categorize these pieces into levels of listening difficulty (to borrow a term from Laurie Anderson) to aid in choosing what to bother listening to. Easy listening: none available at this time (but you never know) Mildly strange: Hubble*; Laugh Cry; Nocturne; Prayer; Reverse Logic Pretty Strange: Relentless; Flux Eterna; God's Sock Puppet; Still Waiting Very Strange Indeed: Bird Headed Dwarf; Float * This was the "untitled" track that Jeff originally put up for me. Well, have fun folks. Again, let me know if these work and what you think of them (even a good "rant" could contain useful feedback). It may be nearly 2001 and I may not be showing any signs of "growing up" any time soon but... Have a happy new year anyway! Ted Killian
