Fourm - Week 9 - Masters of Music Technology


Seb Tomczak presented his work on electronics and of course his work in the Milkcrate sesions. Something I have found strange about Milkcrate is the seemingly exclusive invitation list, which (perhaps unintentionally) restricts the attendance to the 2005 graduates. It is unfortunate that such an interesting concept will not be passed on to future generations of EMUers.

Darren Curtis updated us on his research into medicinal music, space music, vibrational research and... other stuff. The other stuff involved ancient architecture and their auditory properties, the most interesting being the temple that has a bird call "stored" within its design, which can be recalled with a simple clap. I would have thought this concept had been thoroughly explored already considering the advanced technology available today, however it seems to be a rather untapped field of exploration.

You're wrong in this instance. Perhaps you aren't aware, but I haven't officially graduated from the degree yet (a long story) and I've done/do Milkcrate.

'Nevermind' (Nirvana, 1996).

'I'm sure you could play too if you just asked' (Doser, 2008).

Oh, and I really like the title of this post, btw.

Bring on the Mistresses.

Hi Ben,
Anyone is most welcome to do a milkcrate. No one has asked. That's all.

Cheers,
Sebastian
