It shuts peoples brains off, I would have shown a more modest system in reach of a larger percentage of the population. Morton Subotnick’s prediction/goal was that we would reach a point where everyone/anyone would have an electronic music “easel” in their home and be able to make music.

Serge party would not show up as they were still busy putting things together. Buchla party thought a tree was talking to them and then got lost in the woods. 5U party could not get a ride because they were over the max load/size capacity. Frac guys show up but they don’t say much and most people are not really sure who they are.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 12, 2015, at 9:04 AM, punkdISCO <<a href="mailto:forums@punkdisco.co.uk" class="">forums@punkdisco.co.uk</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;" class="">Yep, it is bonkers.
