Not that this has much to do with music, but... If you regard language as being "invented by a culture" then I suggest your conception is as errant as the person's conception of "art" which you find so objectionable. Natural languages are not *invented* by anyone. Artificial languages have been invented, but they remain just that. There are fundamental differences between spoken and written language, but as for claiming that pens influence what you compose..hmmm.... Music: I'll be very interested to see what people make of the new sqpr. I like it, but I think he's gone as far as he can in this particular idiom. Have to say I'm rather disappointed by the new Locust single. I can't see what he's trying to do. I'll give it a few more listens but it seems conceptually flawed to me and the execution doesn't transcend the concept sufficiently. Whatever that means. adam

ahh yes, the silence has finally been broken. Thanks kungster. The Tom Jenkinson Universal Indicator was the secret project I was referring to in the squarepusher page a couple months back. However, a little (g.)remlin told me it was off and that it wasn't going to happen anymore, though it was considered for a time. _____ / ,-,_) /,_) (/ RESH Live & Direct from the G-Spot, Orange County, California, USA http://www1.linkonline.net/fresh/fresh.htm

Yeah i agree, the albums amazing but if he releases another LP in a similar vein then its going to wear thin. I guess its thta difficult second album! However some friends of mine have heard his new ep on Warp 'Big Loada' and say its pretty hard and nasty (and its got seven tracks on), so im looking forward to that fellar. I overheard him say before christmas (who me? eavesdrop? no?..) that he is doing a Universal Indicator on Rephlex which should be pretty rad, Hard Amen + 303's.. cant beat it...and maybe even doing some music for a playstation game?! Beats The Chemical Brothers and FSOL!

That means its shit, but have you heard any of the Mark Van Hoen stuff on Touch or Ash International?, its nice obtuse stuff, like the old Mark we know and love. k.F

Lots of people have tapes of 'Analogue Bubblebath 5' from a year and a half ago. Doesn't mean it'll be released anytime soon. C. -- C.Hilker (cspot@hyperreal.com) "He was mesmerized by the light-pictures, and the music sent him right into dreamland"
