"I was asked to participate in the show about a year ago. I have been long time friends with Peter Grenader from Plan B modular (Ear Acoustic). He had been playing around with the idea of doing a show with artists and friends he admired. I have always loved Peter's work. His music and the piece "The Secret Life of Semiconductors" he played is one of my favorite analogue pieces to date. I was very excited at working with Peter and doing a show with him. It turned out to be a complete success and I was extremely happy to meet the other artists like Alessandro Cortini, and Chas Smith who I have been a long time fan for many years. It was a very interesting to see how everyone approached using these new and old machines to make compositional works. I unfortunately couldn't bring out my modular stuff, as I have strict weight lifting restrictions from only having my surgery months ago. So I had to play on my computers which I know many people might have frowned on me for, but it was the only way I could participate in the show. I was just happy to be there and experience the show."

I'd be interested to know what analog modulars he has.
ReplyDeleteHey, Richard,
ReplyDeleteHaving just spent an entire year recovering from a back injury and resorting to a laptop in order to avoid hoisting a 25 pound analog synth, I can sympathize, and I wouldn't worry about any frowns you may have received :) I hope you are doing better!
