[Neil Wiernik <neil@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would have to say te most interesting use of the family dog was christof
migones use of dog sounds in a work in which he first presented at the
cec's electro-radio days back in the early to mid 90s, I cant remember the
exact date of the performance. In fact I cant even remember much about my
own performance at the same festivel, I think the festivel took place a
few months prior to the release of the ding dong delux compilation on
ohm/avatar. Any how Chistof used not only recordings of this dog but the
actualy live dog in the performance. I belive this same audio work was
later done as a peice for tape diffusion for dance. Man Ireally wish I
could remember more about it but all I do remember is that I really like
the use of the dog panting sounds and walking around a hardwood floor and
the odd half speaking sounds that the dog would make which made up for the
most part along with a few other sounds and text the bulk of the audio
work. I dont think this work has ever been released other then on a tape
he put out again some time befor 95 and after 93. Maybe one day he will
put this out on one of his recording who knows maybe on his upcomming
alien 8 release. I my self am partial to sampling the sounds of friends
siamese cats...........
