lifton_zoline.jpg[Image: Lifton and Zoline] What a difference a quarter century makes. In a radio program from 1973 about electronically mediated art, various experimenters discuss their ambitions. These include cybernetic figure John Lifton, synthesizer developer Don Buchla, and his colleague, Richard Friedman. Also participating is American painter and writer Pamela Zoline. The discussion was moderated by Charles Amirkhanian and is available from archive.org.

Recounts Lifton of an audience’s response to new interactive music projects, “I’ve seen with this last system … people being very suspicious and they stand a few feet away from it and just wiggle the end of one finger slightly to try and test the thing out and see what would happen. Five minutes later you come back and they’d be screaming and dancing all over the floor”.

    Hi, iKlax is a newcomer to interactive music, after 3 years of R&D, the software is going to be released by mid-march.

    We’ve developed an interactive digital audio format: the iKlax.

    Check our temporary site if interested!

    cheers

    Thanks for noticing this program. Actually, it was recorded in December 1972. In Berkeley. (Yikes, that’s 35 years ago!)

    There’s a lot more like this on the Other Minds Radio website, http://radiom.org/
