Interview by Alex White now on-line - with an old piece also available

In January, or was it December, Alex White, wonderful analogue synth performer from Sydney, interviewed me at Brunetti's in Carlton.  He used a very close mic, and wonder of wonders, my voice is very clear and the always very loud. Brunetti's ambience is well in the background.  We talked about a lot of things, mostly my history with electronic music equipment, but also other matters.  It's 54 minutes long, and he did a really amazing editing job.  I don't really talk THAT continuously or breathlessly, although I do admit at time I get close.  As well, he has included a 1972 piece of mine made with the Buchla synthesizer at UCSD, as a prototype of what I would compose with Aardvarks IV.  It's called "All Hell Broke Loose One Sunday Afternoon when the Checker Demon and His Buddies Hung Out At Dinty Moore’s Saloon" and it's 19:32 long.  It was eventually incorporated into my 1975 thesis piece "Aardvarks IV."  But here it is, in it's original format.  Those who know their underground comix history will recognize the "nod" to S. Clay Wilson, extreme comix artist extraordinaire.

Many many thanks to Alex for doing this, and for taking the time to edit it, and post it on line.  MUCH appreciated.
