Wired93: musical accompaniment
[listened to this and this and this during my read today, in case you care to replicate the vibe]
Onward to pages 60 – 71:
- electrotecture as used to describe building (materials) that respond to the cacophony of digital signals surrounding us in our spaces every day
- “Today’s crude systems in no way reflect the media hype and ‘Cyberspace NOW!’ mentality of the impatient computerized masses.”
- mentions of 80s/early 90s bands I’ve never heard of like Clock DVA and Frontline Assembly – with which I’m now smitten
- a look at the state of the Russian phone system – or lack thereof – including mentions of vacuum tubes and MCI (both obsolete)
- really weird 3×4 grid layout that features photos and interviews with the founders of Survival Research Laboratories
