RE: The MRI and Looping: For Ambient & Experimental Music?
yes,
but it's definitely lo-fi. perhaps a parabolic mic in the control
room???
i believe that the technicians have a speaker in
their room,
so that they can hear the patient scream from
claustrophobia...
when i had my mri they could hear me and talk to me, and
no,
i did not scream....
didn't matmos do something with mri? they are
famous for using
sound samples of plastic surgery equipment.... mmmm,
those
liposuction slurps....

Well Philips have been

could buy one? Would look amazing

However...
I've
found out that they cost around £1 million (excluding tax and installation!)
Ouch not many loopers have that sort of money floating about (I know most of
us like to buy equipment but even a MRI scanner may test the desires of the
most ardent tech head)
Your
experience Kris is closely related to John Cage's in the anechoic chamber in 1948. This led
on to him composing the famous piece of music 4'33"
