Bob Moog Foundation: John Mills-Cockell on Early Moog Modular Artists

via The Bob Moog Foundation

"Thom Holmes returns with the first installation of an exploration of some of the earliest uses of the Moog Modular in live performance. This month he highlights John Mills-Cockell, who was a member of the experimental multimedia group Intersystems in Toronto in the late 60s.

Read about Mills-Cockell's early use of the modular and hear examples of it here."

On a separate note, the Bob Moog Foundation continues to expand their Dr. Bob's SoundSchool education initiative.

"Our hallmark education initiative, Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, began five years ago as a pilot program in eight classrooms. Today the innovative program, which inspires children through the intersection of science, music, and technology, will serve over 85 classrooms, and nearly 2,000 students."
