anyone see the Maher Shalal Hash Baz performance "blues de jour" for le weekend a while back? I find it interesting that he used laptops in the show, mainly because his music is starange fragile instrumental and vocal work, but he (Tori Kudo) says he incorporated the laptop as a means of working against a closed system and had microphones in the audience and altered their sounds and projected them back to the audience, interesting, similar to what Achim Wollscheid did in Chicago (tried to do, the system didn't work) a while back. A fine artist, wish I could see him live... nick --------------------------------- Raoul's Left Ear http://www.geocities.com/raoulsleftear/Intro.html ----------------------------------
