This loop has been droning along all afternoon here quite pleasantly, so I
am curious as to whether any records by Autopoesies or related projects are
in this vein. If so I will have to go shopping for CDs. As for clothes,
perhaps fashion shows will be the new distraction from the glow of the
Powerbook (or MD walkman) in New Digital Performance - at least until the
next retrograde swing toward glam or punk (those clothes suggest the
former) returns the guitar-phallus to center stage as a runway prop. (And
as a guitar player and Powerbook user I can say this.) After that it will
be back to fogmachines, shoulder-strapped notebook computers with
guitar-neck-style ribbon controllers, and leather trousers for all. I
wonder how those tennis sweaters and deck shoes will work with such
gear... Are pants electric?
