  1. i got distracted by this vid, pretty intresting for clockwork orange fans. i can't believe it was banned in the uk until 1999, that's just sad.

  3. As far as I know it wasn't banned as such; Kubrick prohibited a British release himself, so it could only go ahead after his death. As usual, Wikipedia has the (potted) story:

  5. the ban was stated as being requested by kubrik, but that is still centered between reaction and the possible options in the uk. still a sad situation.

    Momus probably doesn't want to be sued by Wendy.

    Her litigious nature makes me cringe.

  7. Planet Earth should take out a class action lawsuit against Wikipedia for making every single piece of information everywhere completely unreliable.

    There's a really raunchy comment just aching to be blurted out here. Something involving pounding, posterior, and post-op tran..., erm... scratch that.

    Anyway.. Wendy is one ballsy chick! Nice of her to take it on the chin so well, considering all the pain in the a$$ it must be.


    ///ok. I'm done.

  10. "What a bitch:"

    Its still piracy. If someone wishes you not to use their work you should respect that and stop continuing to be a gnat around their nose.

  12. Well, I for one am no longer inviting Wendy Carlos to my October fox hunts, spring box socials or even my fabulous Rose Cotillions.

  13. Wow, so you couldn't make a mallet sound on a Moog. If only there were another synth at the time that could have done that....

  14. > You're saying Wendy is a bitch because she won't allow anyone to use her recordings without permission?

    I'm sure she's losing millions of dollars a year because someone posts a YouTube clip.

    I should make "the_real_thing.mp3" into a UTube video. For shits and giggles.
