I passed a very good day at Andy in Norwich last week (wow, only a week 
ago!).
He played us some of this stuff and it sounded really beautifull.
I understood how the FlipMode which he created is related to that.
It gives you a soft way to replace with the pedal, better for cloudy 
sequences, while 8th quant + SUSsubstitute turns into precise 
rhythmic sequences.
He used it with the ebow and I was amazed how smartly he placed a 
little chunk of the actual note into the right spot of the "sequence" 
running rather quickly behind.
Sounds very pleasent to me, neither nervous nor boring, rather alive 
and gradually changing...

yep, its a new world, looping is not just what it used to be... I 
will have to tell more about the other meetings!
