Re: [microsound] at last: the minimal techno soap opera

[David Powers <dpowers3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This is quite amusing actually, I saw this last Friday.  My personal
favorite "episode"---

Magda: Hey Richie, do you know that: "Because things are the way they
are, they will not stay the way they are"

Richie: How do you mean Magda?

Magda: Well, Berthold Brecht said that. Does he mean that if things
arent the way they were then they might be something else?

Richie: No Magda, I think he means we should use these laptops and
ipods to make minimal sounds.

Ricardo: Hey Magda, Richie, whats going on?

Magda: Hey Ricardo, we're just talking about Berthold Brecht. Do you
know that he said: "Because things are the way they are, they will not
stay the way they are"??

Ricardo: wow! what a minimal coincidence! I just bought you both a
t-shirt with "Because things are the way they are, they will not stay
the way they are" written all over it!!!

Richie: well what do you know! son of a gun - how fucking cool is it to
be in Berlin?

Magda: pretty fucking cool Richie, pretty fucking cool!

scratchery, and home to the stars of spacebar music.

an except:

Ricardo: Hey Richie, its so fucking great being us! You know while the
lumpen proletariat who thinks there are only 3 dimensions (yes! Only
3!)
go to do their "jobs" we can be here playing minimalness in this
Ubercoolische bunker right here in the centre of Ubercoolische
Berlin!!!

Richie: Yeah Ricardo I hear you bro! Lets drop another Helmut
Bumpuscher! Wow! Look at that crowd out there. It is littered with
outsider-artists and assorted freaks looped into the electronic
borderlands that form the dystopia that is today's Berlin!

Magda: That's what I was just about to say Richie!

Ricardo: Do you see what Im wearing guys?

Richie: A pair of eye glasses?

Ricardo: Nein dumkopf! I am wearing goggles that enable me to view
through the prism of a dialectical society that's reinventing logic
from
experience rather than predetermined systems of belief!! Can't you
see?

Magda: Cool! They make you twinkle with innocence and romance Ricardo!

Ricardo: "innocence and romance" is my middle name Magda!

Magda: I thought your middle name was "Corazon de mi alcachofa".

Ricardo: that was my middle name yesterday Magda ? shouldn't you be
making yourself useful and pouring the drinks or something?.........
