Acousmatic Provoker

No.218, aired June 5, 2013. Right before I went on air one week earlier (Wednesday, May 29), I realized I had the wrong CDs in my hand - instead of the planned selections, I was holding some extras I had brought along, and in briefly wondering what kind of show I could create with only those five CDs, I experienced a moment of creative freedom – thus this follow-up program.

Here are the five CDs:
Minute Album - Emetics
Sex Mad – Nomeansno
Primipara - Static Eyesore
New Hot Spirits - Tangiers
Kabbalah, Science and the Meaning of Life: Because Your Life Has Meaning - by Rav Michael Laitman PHD

No, I did not limit the show entirely to these five items. In the first place, I got bored of Michael Laitman’s audiobook, and secondly, I found Static Eyesore’s minimal electronic music could not carry the program’s entire instrumental requirement. The answer to both deficiencies was Iancu Dumitrescu – an interview text from Cosmic Orgasm: The Music Of Iancu Dumitrescu, a new book by Unkant press, edited by Andy Wilson, which had arrived at my house that day; and Harryphonies (Epsilon), a 19-minute work for soloists and orchestra from Dumitrescu’s ED MN 1003.
