Btw, quite unusual for a chromophobia to keep the upper-left Apple logo blue. :) Thanks for the note. Btw, quite unusual for a chromophobia to keep the upper-left Apple logo blue. :)

A good job at translating, as usual, even catching and cleverly rendering my unorthodox use of the sentence-end particle "maybe." :-) Since you have not heard my live performances for well over a year, i have to explain that i have not used any vocal samples or even any drones in live situations for the past two years, and probably will not in the near future either. I have been using quite different materials in live shows, e.g., pure pulses (2pi 2005, Mini MIDI 2006), raw recordings (China Sound Unit, Hangzhou, 2005; concert for Lin Chiwei, Taipei, 2006) or acoustic gadgets (hand-held military siren, Pisces Iscariots concert, Taipei, 2006), etc. This time at 2pi Festival, i wanted to try something else, and i never think pitch/melody is something to be avoided or has been rendered irrelevant in the present context of new music or sound art, hence this little experiment.
