I enjoyed Farmers Manual's performance a lot... Just got into their music
and I quite like it...
As for the software they use: I know that on the audio side, they heavily
rely on pd (pure data) by Miller Puckette. They probably use GEM (Graphics
Environment for Multimedia), a pd externals package that uses OpenGL, for
their visuals (among other things, of course). I also caught a glimpse of
b1257+12, which is another wacky sound app.
BTW, did you stay for the whole performance? I had to leave at 1:30 and I
wonder if I missed a lot of the sonic assault...
