March 13/11 show

So, this week's show was relatively well planned out to feature a lecture by composer and sound artist Karlheinz Stockhausen at UCLA in 1966. Unfortunately, due to some unforeseen mishap with technology, I was unable to air the show I had put together and was forced to make due with some new releases from CFMU's music library. This is what happens when you are not great with technology but rely on it because it is easier than lugging a bunch of records and cds across town. Lesson learned. Part of the lecture will air on next week's show and I will post a link to the entire thing on the blog.

I will not be posting the podcast for this week since the show did not go as planned, but you can still download it from CFMU's website (and see if you can detect the irritation in my voice). This is one of the joys of live radio. Just go to the programming grid and select new directions then go to march 13/11 show date download. It will be up for a bout four weeks I think.

In the meantime, check out this film by Peter Moore of Stockhausen's live action composition - Stockhausen's Originale: Doubletakes, the Film (1964).  This is part 1 from YouTube but you can watch the complete video and read more about this piece here courtesy of UbuWeb
