Miles Meada was in DC last weekend doing an informal question/answer at Metatrack Studios and he talked about performing in Chicago with a device that amplifies brainwaves. It's some large copper contraption that he can plug into a mixer and broadcast. The guy who generates the brainwaves plays with something that alters them as he goes. It all sounded really interesting, and he said there's always a mysterious intangible quality to the evenings when he uses it. It's inaudible frequencies that are broadcast. I wish I could remember what it was called... I asked him if he could "jack" the brainwaves. ;) Tristan ---------- http://ampcast.com/phonopsia <- Music http://phonopsia.tripod.com <- Mixes, pics, thought, travelogue & info http://www.metatrackstudios.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- email <FrogboyMCI> <- AOL Instant Messenger --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
