Three Eventides: H3000, DSP4000, Andaman (prototype Orville). No other processing.

It reminded her of Laurie Anderson a little >somehow There's a certain kindred aesthetic, especially in the creative use of simple toys and found objects. Laurie lives on Canal Street in New York, where there are many surplus shops and cheap electronics outlets. Rick also reminds me of some friends of mine from San Diego who perform as a duo called [THE]. They even do odd things with dayglo. I'm almost positive that Rick has never seen these folks - it's just a case of some really whacky and creative people tapping into the same alternate universe. Rick and I have a little bit of that kind of telepathy, witness the Santa Cruz gig where we both showed up with miniature electric guitars. >9:40-10:10 Ted Killian w/ Dr. Bob Sterling >I honestly have NO IDEA of how well (or ill) I played. You played extremely well. I have no idea how well you intended to play, but I was impressed. I didn't notice any of the problems you cite, but then that's pretty typical. What did happen was more than sufficient. >10:20-10:50 Tom Heasley > >Double damn! I missed this one too. This is the second time I've heard Tom this year (previously at the Ought-One Festival in Montpelier). It's a rich and sonorous aural experience that flies in the face of all the dumb clichés about what tuba music is. -- ______________________________________________________________ Richard Zvonar, PhD (818) 788-2202 http://www.zvonar.com http://RZCybernetics.com http://www.cybmotion.com/aliaszone http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=rz
