	3:02pm Webhamster Henry: The little mousies announce another Ridgewood Radio Show!
	3:03pm Stanley: A left turn on this show and you'd be facing back where you started. I think.
	3:06pm fred: Good afternoon David, Ruth, Henry, Stanley, and other listeners
	3:06pm Webhamster Henry: Hey Ranjit, are you listening?
	3:07pm doctorjazz: Hi-as my daughter would say, this is Gamel-licious!
	3:08pm steveo: hello David; interesting show so far!
	3:08pm fred: STEIM is such an important place. I heard their survival was dicey some years ago, but the lack of alarming emails since is a good sign
	🥁 3:11pm weinstein: I worry about STEIM too. We should check up on them.
	🥁 3:13pm weinstein: Welcome everybody... I'm a little backassward today, as Stanley noted. But the music will not be damaged by my clumsiness!
	3:15pm Sem Chumbo: Hello, DW, and all.
	🥁 3:17pm weinstein: Hello Sem, join the ruckus!
	3:21pm Webhamster Henry: Vexations sound good on tines!
	🥁 3:30pm weinstein: Vexations the perfect vehicle to program to auto-play. Though the concert version is something you must do once.
	4:01pm Webhamster Henry: You hear that mash up of Music for Airports and Metal Machine Music?
	🥁 4:06pm weinstein: Must check that out!
	4:07pm fred: I had never heard Music For Airports and was curious about it. Not my thing
	🥁 4:11pm weinstein: Wow Fred. Maybe in the right airport?
	4:15pm northguineahills: When they did Brian Eno's Music for Airports at JFK, a bunch of hipster kids left a drunken mess at the terminal it was performed (It might have been a NY Post article).
	4:19pm northguineahills: I don't think I've heard this version of Rainforest. @fred: I'm a sucker for all of Eno's 70s ambient pieces.
	4:19pm fred: @David: You might have hit upon my issue: flying is risky for me because of ear trouble, so I'm unfamiliar with airports. That's probably why I miss the point
	4:22pm fred: Rainforest, though, that's more my thing
	🥁 4:27pm weinstein: Maybe its a complexity thing because both are arguably ambient.
	4:34pm northguineahills: The Philip's Pavilion was the image for my first cd.
	🥁 4:36pm weinstein: The book to read and look at is Space Calculated in Seconds, I believe. Impossible to find.
	4:39pm northguineahills: Poème électronique was on the 8 cd comp for my music literature class I took as a freshman in college, it immediately became a mixtape staple of mine.
	4:41pm fred: I once heard Poème Electronique played on the acousmonium of Radio France. It takes another dimension within that kind of setting
	🥁 4:41pm weinstein: Marc Treib's book is $950 new on Amazon but apparently you can download a PDF for free.
	🥁 4:42pm weinstein: @Fred: yes, a lot of the things on this show are best heard in surround or delicious acoustics. Hard to record.
	4:42pm steveo: feeling left out with just my 2 speakers
	4:48pm Stanley: Sound installations, eh? Well, now I know. (strokes chin pensively).
	🥁 4:48pm weinstein: Yeah, quad just never made it past gimmickry for even the most dedicated audiophile.
	🥁 4:49pm weinstein: @Stanley: a slippery group those sound folks who embrace or reject the terminology!
	4:49pm Stanley: Thanks for this evening's show, David.
	4:50pm Sem Chumbo: Agreed, deadly disappointment in early quad. Binned the whole thing pretty quickly.
	🥁 4:51pm weinstein: Thanks to you all. You surprise me each week and I am grateful for that.
	4:51pm Webhamster Henry: 5.1 was supposed to take over the world too. Maybe it still can, but I kept tangling those speaker wires.
	4:53pm doctorjazz: Thanks for the show, enjoyed it! (5.1 seems to have done OK for home theater/movies, don't think it ever became big for music).
	4:53pm Webhamster Henry: I'll be up in the CRAIVE lab in a few weeks. ccc-rpi.org... 192 speakers.
	4:53pm northguineahills: Thanks David! Falkor was Luck Dragon, is that a Lucky Dragon?
	🥁 4:54pm weinstein: Interesting that movie soundtrack thing made so much of 5.1 but pop and "serious" music not.
	🥁 4:55pm weinstein: @Henry: make use of your 192 wisely! Enjoy!
	4:56pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever Radio Extravaganza): Here comes...loopfest sound collage mixup live caller improvisational radio experiment. Right here on the Drummer stream in just a couple of minutes, but over there on this other playlist! Join: wfmu.org...
	4:56pm Webhamster Henry: Here's a real picture of it .. I'm even in one of these pictures! ccc-rpi.org...
	🥁 4:57pm weinstein: Coolness.
	4:57pm geezerette: Hey, I'm late! Have a memory of a recreation of Rainforest in the atrium of LACMA, possibly in late 70s, and David Amran having something to do with it.
	4:57pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever Radio Extravaganza): Beautiful bleep bloops, thanks,, David!
	4:58pm fred: @Henry: A researcher where I work spend part of the summer in a residency at EMPAC working with a similar setup. It was in New York state, could it be the same place?
	🥁 4:58pm weinstein: That's the place.
	4:58pm Webhamster Henry: @Fred yep .. it's at RPI, but not on campus where EMPAC is.
	🥁 4:59pm weinstein: Kenzo!
	4:59pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks David & Ruth! Hear you next week!
	4:59pm fred: @Henry: His name's Markus Noisternig, you probably know the same people
	5:01pm Webhamster Henry: @Fred - I'm pretty isolated from actual research there, I hope they're doing something worthwhile!
