Re: [microsound] chef d'oeuvre / canavarro



>> Appleton's an academic, but he has a great sense of humor and timing. For
 1969's "Newark Airport Rock," the composer querried passers-by at the NJ
 terminal for their opinions of "the new electronic music" and wove the
piece
together with a little Moog and MIDI doodling, Robert Ashley-style.

he was obviously WAY ahead of his time to be using MIDI in 1969 :P

wasn't appleton one of the founders of new england digital? i *think* he was one of the men who designed the synclavier.
