'EVIL BRAD' - a guitar technique instructional flexi disk that was altered such that the record plays itself differently every time through!

'WIN' - a mcdonald's flexi-disk that was purported to hold signifigance only if the recorded choir actually sang the mcdonald's menu song all the way through without falter. needless to say this one does not afford the listener the grand prize of $1,000,000.00

PARTYNUMMER - a favorite party song from WIMBLEDOME, an album I made using only the tone generator in SoundEdit 16

' 2 MILES ON WOOD STREET' - from the Prepared Civic 3" CD. Recorded while intentionally driving a very rough road in West Oakland. For this piece I hung heavy objects on elastic cords over percussive instruments, a toy piano, and a small electric guitar and the bumps and potholes did the rest.

'DR FRESNIA SETS THE CLOCKTOWER' - a track from ORGAN DONATIONS SAVES LIVES, an album made entirely of improvisations with no overdubs using a water-damaged farfisa, the titles are fairly narrative, and signal my debut as a dark and gothic sound artist! all tracks recorded live using the on-board dual mono tape recorder by bell & howell, only 3 different notes from the thirteen foot pedals, and over five missing notes from the upper and lower manuals, open-topped destructo-modifications made it convenient for live circuit-bending with my fingers and tongue!
