Re: [microsound] PD.Balkania Linux audio workshops

hi tim,

thanks for the props!

i find it very interesting to note the more general [lack of] reaction 
to linux/open source-related stuff on microsound. seems everybody is too 
busy tearing each other's semantics apart ;-)

but seriously, especially for the amount of politics and pseudo-politics 
that fly around here, the relative silence on the basic tools we use and 
who hands out or "steals" the permission to use them is fascinating. 
during these workshops, i met lots of musicians who loved the idea of 
open-source and open licensing, and applied it to their music 
releases... but still used cracked M$ programs to produce them! for me, 
that is more than a technical issue, but also a philosophical one. maybe 
if people don't want to talk tech so deep on the list, they can still 
approach it from this angle.

best,
derek
