Not sure if any of you caught the piece on circuit bending in the most recent issue of XLR8R (Plastikman cover, issue #72). It talks a little about the work I do and has some pics of me and my toys. Anyway, I'm just starting to sell some of my bent instruments to the public and put the first one up on ebay yesterday: http://tinyurl.com/ukg7 This first one is the actual Speak & Spell photographed on page 103 of that issue (in its early stage of being bent). There was also going to be a bending tutorial in that same issue showing me modifying this particular Speak & Spell, but it got cut at the last minute. If all goes well with this first one, I'll probably be auctioning off a new instrument each week, so contact me off list if want me to give you the heads-up. I know I'll probably catch some shit for this (yes, I'm a shameless sellout cashing-in on my short-lived fame, okay?) but after years from getting lightheaded off of hot solder and ruining my wife's kitchen table by turning it into my workbench, I think I'm entitled to a little something. On a side note, I'll be playing two shows in Portland this Saturday (Music Millennium instore at 5pm and Dunes at 9pm), so come on out if you're in the area. -Chachi http://www.chachijones.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
