I recognize the 4:33, of course, as the concept of Mr. Cage, which has birthed a number of interpretations over the years. Considering the added "tape" theme here, will this collection be available in cassette format when completed?

None of all the previous releases, have been released in a physical way...

It would be nice if there would be one.

What I think I know about Institute For Alien Research - it's a netlabel run by Shaun Robert (aka Mutant Beatniks) in the UK. Occasional releases on CD-R but mostly downloads. Extremely prolific!

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.

The Electronic Cottage website is primarily 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 is a casual social gathering place of the EC Community, where EC people can meet, share artwork and news of current projects and releases.
The website and this EC Facebook Group are two separate but connected entities of the greater EC Community.
