{AN} EeL performs John M. Bennett's Musical Score

5/17/2019

I was looking at the Electronic Cottage site on FB and saw a post by fellow EC member John M. Bennett entitled " Musical Score "

Well, this excited me & I dredged what I could up to accomplish the task. But feeling my lather, I realized it might be interesting to do a bit of cross pollination & create a version exclusive to the Electronic Cottage site - So flew as fast as I could to Las Vegas, put on my Gold Lamé tonsils, & created a intimate & incredibly sensual version exclusive to EC - Needless to say, you are all quite welcome. And needless to say, many thanks to John M. Bennett

Wow, Neal! I feel just like I'm in Vegas while listening to this...although not in a club or lounge. More like standing in front of a 7-Eleven, but hey, that's something! ;-)

Perfectly realized score. The score and the realization are very Fluxus-like. What could be better than that?

Lovely!! Just like a more standardize score when u look at this piece of art you can hear what u have created.
I want to try it with brushes on a snare and cymbals.

ELECTRONIC COTTAGE is an international magazine where independent artists, musicians, writers and freethinkers share in-depth articles, essays, interviews, tech and gear reviews and tutorials,
and much more.
EC draws inspiration from the Cassette Culture Revolution of the 1980s, 90s and beyond; Mail Art, Small Press and Zines, Dada, Fluxus, Punk Rock, Hacking, Circuit Bending, Anarchy, and Noise.
EC values inclusion, democracy, experimentation, independence and freedom of thought and expression, open-minded exchange, and Community.

From this moment forward the Electronic Cottage website will primarily be an online magazine for the publication of lengthy and in-depth articles, essays, and interviews.
For those of you who use Facebook I have created an Electronic Cottage Group, which will be a casual social gathering place of the EC Community, where EC people can meet, share artwork and news of current projects and releases.
The EC website will continue as before, and I encourage those of you who do not use Facebook to use the FORUM page here at the EC website to post miscellaneous thoughts and personal updates.
The website and this EC Facebook Group are two separate but connected entities of the greater EC Community.
