Description

This continues the fascinating journey of Eric Singer, and helps us to further appreciate the way he helped shape the electronic music future. I think it is especially important to consider what was happening during the early 2000's, when computer technology was moving forward so rapidly, and the financial marketplace was in post-internet-boom chaos. Eric kept cranking out the work, teaching dozens of people how to manage their art through the process of hardware and software production, and eventually leading to something as overwhelming as the Orchestrion Project.  Again, if you haven't yet checked out Eric's work, you should: http://www.singerbots.com/ Enjoy!
