Analogue Smoque
At first blush, the alert listener detects a link between Analogue Smoque and Madam Blavatsky. The magi demur. Rather, they say, the text reveals its author's interest in cryptorchidistics, i.e., states of non-descent. For a printout, apply to Editor@LaFolia.com.
With respect to ars poetica, Mike Silverton's adventures persist in microscopy. A reputation for that for which Silverton is best know looks in large measure to Proctology Today, a professional journal to which he contributes colonic feuil-letons, and LaFolia.com, of which he is the editor. Monday through Friday, one finds Mr. Silverton hip-deep in the alphabet or rarely more than a quarter-mile distant. On weekends, weather permitting, he applies the Lamaze Method to perfect and imperfect strangers.
At Margolis has been recording and performing experimental music since New Year's Day 1984. He drifted into electronics/sound by chance and an overriding interest in "the not usual." His music can best be described as indulging in "sound fingerpainting;" sometimes alone and sometimes with the services of others, a sound canvas is stretched, covered, built upon, and then let loose upon the world.
Tom Hamilton has composed and performed electronic music for over 30 years. Typically, Hamilton's concerts, installations and recordings contrast structure with improvisation and textural electronics with acoustic instruments and voice. The composer-performer creates aural events that attempt to immerse participants in fluid contexts. Rather than addressing traditional modes of presentation and observation, Hamilton prefers to explore interaction and simultaneity as aspects of "present-time listening" on both the performers' and listeners' parts.
