friend of mine and i were discussing how there's so many creative brilliant things like throbbing gristle and negativland and such but often those artists are more focused on words, social commentary, presenting pieces of art/music for historical or contextual reasons, etc -- wouldn't it be great if the hypertechnical autechres and richard devines met each halfway and you got something with a little more 'context' around it. black dog recently did that series of 'conspiracy tapes' which is a dead on perfect example of this concept too Clint Anderson Systems Engineer "Freedom -- paint me a picture!" -- Burton Cummings On Thu, Nov 1, 2018 at 2:23 PM Chris Bellevie <c.bellevie@gmail.com> wrote:
