Re: [microsound] ... laptops everywhere
I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING I TRULY DON'T SEE LAPTOP PLAYING BECOMING A
MAINSTAY, OR A POSITION THAT WILL BE DESIRED BY MANY BANDS, MAINSTREAM AND
UNDERGROUND. I USE A LAPTOP, WHICH I RUN INTO A MIXER, WITH An ALTERNATE CD
PLAYER, AND I ALSO BOUNCE BETWEEN PLAYING WITH CIRCUIT BENT TOYS AND SOME MINOR
INSTRUMENTS TO BRING LIFE TOO A DRONE SITUATION OF STARRING AT THE LAPTOP
DROPPING SOUNDS IN AND OUT OF THE GRID ON STAGE.
I DO THINK LAPTOP PERFORMANCE IS BRILLIANT IN ITS OWN ASPECT, A FRIEND ONCE
SAID TO ME THAT LAPTOPPING GIVES A LITTLE BIT OF FAME TO THE NERDS THAT USE TO
MAKE GAMES ON THEIR TI-85 GRAPHING CALCULATOR IN MATH CLASS.
HOPEFULLY LAPTOP PERFORMANCE WILL BLEND INTO A MORE IN-DEPTH FIELD AND NOT
DISAPPEAR LIKE THE KEYBOARD PIANOS FROM THE 80'S........THAT I MISS
HAHA
