Here's an extract from an interview I did |with Jeff last year around this time. | |TT: "You just mentioned disappearing and reappearing. At Sonar |I saw you disappear at some point, but the music kept playing |and there were images of you playing records. I was pretty |confused by that. Was that done on purpose or did you just |need to go to the loo?" | |Jeff: "(laughs) No, that was on purpose. It was designed so |that at one point the film would take over. At a certain point |there was no need for me to be on the stage. Once the film |took over I left and stood on the side and watched for my cue |to come back up and take over from the film. That was like a |test as well, to see if the people would be able to continue |on with the party if say something was simulated. That was an |experiment. I don't think it worked out so well because the |venue was so large that the people in the middle or the back |couldn't see anyway. We tried it once before in Tokyo and it |was the same thing. At first the people were confused, they |didn't understand where I had gone, but the music was still |playing and there was still this image of me playing on the |screen. What I had hoped to get from that was the indication |that the people wouldn't mind dancing to an image and that |would lead us into this holograph thing where at a certain |point they would actually be dancing to a simulation of myself |or multiple DJs." | | |The full interview can be found here: |http://www.technotourist.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sectio |ns&file=i |ndex&req=viewarticle&artid=19 | |Yes, some shameless site-promo, I know! :) | |John | | |-----Original Message----- |From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] |Sent: dinsdag 26 augustus 2003 15:10 |To: Martin |Cc: 313@hyperreal.org |Subject: Re: (313) jeff mills at lost yesterday + free mix | | |For the record I thought Mills was brilliant (as usual) !! |It doesn't really matter where he went, the main thing is that |he came back! | | | | |Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 26/08/2003 14:12:24 | |To: Quest Pond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Robert Taylor | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "m a t t [d]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, | <313@hyperreal.org> |cc: | |Subject: Re: (313) jeff mills at lost yesterday + free mix | | |Poor old Jeff, he just can't win can he! | |[Jeff Mills] Here's a million pounds |[Punter] What!, this is all in pound coins | |md | | | |26/8/03 11:26 AM Quest [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |> 10 mins at a time hey?-well i didn't time it but i remember it being |longer |> then that. |> |> Are you sure he was djing or just switching the video |display off?
