A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 28 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.] (Visit homepage.)

I have my computer running into a little mixer with one stereo connected to its monitor buss and the other the main out. I use on of the units to sort of push more bass than the main one, and it's on the other end of the room.

Has anyone had fun with the time travel warfare thing yet, like it starts out with the basic Ellison scenario then just goes crazy with people getting preemptively assassinated left and right every couple of seconds, people just vanishing, etc.
