about

Class project, 1986, for Electronic Music 441B offered at the University of Arizona. Electronic Music was still considered tape splicing, analog synthesizers at the time and the course was intended to teach music majors the principles behind Musique Concrete, experimental works the likes of Reich and Cage. An original Moog, a Revox and TEAC were the "lab tools". They also added a Yamaha SPX-90 that semester which allowed interesting stereo effects from mono sources. I used the Moog, the tapes, the SPX-90 to my own 4-track sources, remixed. Reagans had just announced their disturbing and destructive "war on drugs", the audio of the infamous speech I snagged in real-time off the radio. See Cop Polyp release for details on the jerk with the gun.
