via Fabricio Carvalho aka Astronauta Pinguim on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge.
You'll find the full interview on Astronauta Pinguim here.
"In 1964, Richard received his Master's Degree in music theory and composition at Yale University, and then he went to Italy on a Fulbright. There he met composers Goffredo Petrasi and Luigi Nono, whom Richard has studied and worked with for some time. Also in the mid-sixties, he co-founded the live electronic music group Musica Elettronica Viva, in Rome. In 1967, interested in using brainwaves as controller of sounds, he became aware that american engineer Robert Moog had developed the Moog synthesizer some years earlier and was putting on market his new invention. Richard contacted him and soon became the first person to bring a Moog synthesizer to Europe, in 1967."
