This is a bit of a tangent, but here goes. About a year ago, some friends and I were trying to organize an idm appreciation club at the university of waterloo. There was already a strong techno club that organized trips to raves and had a minimal cd library, but we wanted something different which attracted experimental musicians and fans outside of the rave scene. We were trying to come up with slogans and ways describe and advertise what the club was all about. My favorite proposal was "If you feel like dancing when you hear a modem, you'll fit right in." :) Unfortunately the club flopped. -- * sheila.santos... .software.developer.. . ..*discreet.logic
