I said, I think - I'll say it now (the computer in front of me was arguing with me at the time with the insistent _shan't_ of the cook in the trial in Alice, and that distracted me because I thought it might go down in the middle of the performance), that the prepared tape could be seen as 120 pieces each 10 seconds long, but we then dragged that out and unsynched it somewhat, the live input rode over the 10 second pulse
It was always thought of as one piece. The prepared tape was part of it only and subject to live treatment and addition * Initially it was scheduled in the morning where John Sparrow's curation was eventually, then it was scheduled as the last piece, then it was moved earlier to appease the lecturer next door who went apeshit when she heard us testing the 8 channel system L ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 03, 2005 1:58 PM Subject: Wryting at e-Poetry Because it encircled us, & because of its scheduling towards the end of the conference, it felt to me like a gifted critical space. This impression of a stability against which to think goes against the grain, & the granulity, of Lawrence’s introduction – which I think suggested the performance had at some point been thought of as a hundred or so very short pieces.
