Ah a violinist who can actually play without sounding like a dying cat - cool! This has got me thinking about the whole "looking at the screen" problem. I must say I tend to use the computer screen a bit like I used to use crib notes when playing with cover bands. I remember turning up at a gig having left my notes at home once - and despite my misgivings, playing all the songs fine. I shall try to wean myself off the screen and see,(hear) what happens.. peace G > Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2010 08:37:4 -0800 > From: looppool@cruzio.com > To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com > Subject: Interesting Interview with Max/MSP User Owen Pallett > > I came across this new interview with Owen Pallett > at the Cycling 74 site.
