Yo ho--- oh baby, I went to a live performance by this guy Zbigniew Karkowski (from poland) He played in the middle of the event (which was all ambient/experimental stuff), and asked that all the lights be turned on thier brightest, he then whipped out his laptop, hooked into the system and proceded to let loose for approx 20 min of 15-30 sec "sound sculpture" blasts. It was so damn loud, grating and annoying that people fled the room, some actually wernt outside even tho it was freezing....some of the peeps throwing the event reminded him that although he was the artist and could do whatever he likes, to please keep in mind that next time he wants to let loose like that to bring his own speakers. (well, they didn't say it exactly like that, I'm sure y'all can fig that out!) Linda ----------------------------- Linda Leigh/L3 www.technotica.com At 05:24 PM 3/5/02 -0600, Christopher Sorg wrote:
