A nice little CD, in the Techno Animal way.  Clock DVA also sampled a dream 
sequence from this film - I believe filmed in Alta Plaza Park - in 
"Connection Machine" on the "Buried Dreams" album; I only saw the source 
film after several years of spooky listening.  The most amusing part of the 
film for me is a scene in which a reception desk is placed in a public 
walkway of Embarcadero Center, for clearly Coppola was working quite 
creatively with far smaller budgets in those earlier days.

np - Pimmon "Assembler" (very nice work!)
