Re: RE: Re: [313] curious?
Hans is right. And not only: Mike Banks told me in 1995 how much he respected what Richie Hawtin has done. This was at a time when there was a lot of resentment around Detroit about the course the Plus 8 crew had taken. Richie, Johnny Q and the others never disrespected the producers and musicians in Detroit, but their enthusiasm got them in a bit of trouble early on (the "Future Sound of Detroit" slogan etc.). To their credit, they made amends and when I talked with him, Mike acknowledged that. The real expert on this history remains Dan Sicko, and a lot of the story didn't make it into "Techno Rebels." I think Dan put exactly the right emphasis on it in print, and the rest is better left to the private views of those involved. There's another interesting postscript to the story. When the DEMF management went off course this year, Richie was the one who stood up and said what needed to be said. Where were all the other voices that should have been out there? I'm still wondering about that. I'm not particularly fond of his DJing style, actually, but I have total admiration for his focus on his music and his dedication to a healthy music scene. Richie, like Mike, is one of the people I count on to carry things forward in a productive and positive fashion. And they have never disappointed me. As for the 313 list. I've been privileged to participate here over the years, and what I have learned is how different this list is from many others. If you come in here shootin' off, you better know what you're saying, because not only are there those who know the story better, but often they were there in the story themselves. phred - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

> > There are no limitations thats only YOUR perspective! > > Uuuuh. There are limitations to how deep man can dive into the ocean, how high man can fly, how long man can live, how loud music can be before a man's eardrums blow out, how much weight you can lift. The fact of the matter is that there are limitations to us while we are in this dimension. I do agree, however, that there is a plane of existence where we are not limited, but, unfortunately, none of us are inhabiting that plane right now. Atleast none of us who are typing emails to the 313 list. I think what was said earlier pertained to realizing our limitations right now. In the long-run, including our after-life, I think that we are in-fact limitless. So I guess it just matters what time-scale we are using when we determine whether or not we are limited. Maybe the ones who really know that we are limitless in the after-life are those same ones who commit suicide in a hurry to get to that realm. But maybe that is a bad idea because we will ruin our chance to get to that plane. One thing we are not limited in is our imageination. "Imageination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world." -Albert Einstein- I agree with you all. I think it goes both ways. I find myself caught somewhere between science and reality--wanting to know everything, but understanding that that is impossible because there is no everything. Limited, yet limitless. Maybe being both is being limitless. I think so. I find myslef leaning toward the same opinion as stated above (wv909). The only thing I may disagree with is people insulting others. We all have different opinions and perspectives. Let's keep it that way and try not to impose our beliefs on others and trying to make people feel dumb. Our differences are what make us (all of us) a "limitless" entity--taking all of our beliefs and combining them into one all-encompassing opinion. Keep 313ing everyone and let's express our limitless existence, here in this dimension, thru music! This stuff is really cool to think about... "It's nod a tuma!"

RE: RE: Re: [313] curious?
Damn, talk about grinding someone else's axe. I'm pretty sure the boys of Submerge and Plus 8 have done a pretty good job of resolving some of those differences that probably occured 8 years ago. Whether or not you want to drive to Ann Arbor to have some intimate conversations with Kyle, the UR vs +8 feud really shouldn't be making you uptight. I sugesst you check out HYPEREAL.com most directly the story of how the +8 people denied entry to DREXICYA and SUBMERGE crew at one of these little forays into 'breaking laws' at a RAVE in an abandonded building,in Detroit...This really shows the true aspect of open creativity and looking ahead huh? > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
