LIVE LOOPING article in the BOSTON GLOBE

    Looping guitarist, David Kirkdorffer,  The Boston area's chief 
promoter of the Live Looping movement,  
ambient artist, Dennis Moser and myself were all interviewed for a nice 
introductory article
on the Live Looping movement for the Boston Globe (along with Imogen 
Heap, Joseph Arthur and
other luminaries).

    This might be the first major, prestigious metropolis newspaper to 
run an article on live looping
which makes me happy and excited for all of us and the weird shit we do 
(is it?).

    Boston journalist Adam Conner-Simons was a joy to interview with and 
was really genuinely
interested in the subject matter.   I want to congratulate him on a job 
well done.  
This movement is so diverse and complex that it is difficult to do a 
relatively short article on it that
does justice to it.  I thought he did a fine job with a small amount of 
space.

    I'd like to also extend an invitation to all the Boston loopers to 
come participate at
the Y2K9 International Live Looping Festival this year.    Please write 
me off list if you'd like
the details of this invitation.   You too,  Adam (who is a budding 
looper himself, I believe)!
