making Wolfe-inspired music

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I dug this.  haven't checked out the others yet.

here's a SC3 sub-band Electromagnetic Azoth doing a song about Philip  
Dick's UBIK.  It really gets at the regressive/progressive theme.   
Bill Horist on guitar with Spruance editing and adding electronics.
