WTF, before he became post-human!

post-human?

isay he's post -human i mean he made a computer that spat out sheet music, how idm

wow at former miss america getting that his music is oddly composed and guessing that he might have used a formula to come up with the notes. those are advanced concepts even today, and especially for back then!! maybe miss americas used to be smarter back then. like waaaaay smarter.

jeez - when i was 17, all i could think about was the best way to build a bong

The music doesn't sound unusual to me, I would have not guessed a computer created it. I think I read an article about him in sound on sound and he said a lot of far out stuff.

i think live 7 needs a manual carriage return

You should also check out bruce haack from the same time frame .. who is more interesting imo.

when i was 17, i could barely get out of bed for school. crap. this blog makes me feel more lazy than I already do.

every time I see this show, I think about how far the common concept or the average imagination has deflated over the past half century.
