"Dude, You Rule" [mp3 removed]. Fortunately I have RIAA protecting me so you will never hear this on a mixtape. Oh, I don't, because I'm too "small"? Well, God bless them anyway for their efforts to stamp out creativity, I mean "piracy."

Thanks, Paul. I like the Atari Loopcart pieces that you and Jeremy of Receptors did, especially the way yours starts out as a video game song and gets more syncopated as it goes.

I never posted the rest of my Bent festival images. Receptors was a real highlight--I've also been enjoying his (their?) record.

I had more to say on the Festival, too, basically a continuation of our argument about supposedly bad, boring bent work vs cool hackers who keep their hands out of the solder. *joke*

Paul B Davis's presence on the panel, and Receptors' music, among other things, suggested to me that the concept is still amorphous enough that camps don't need to be emerging--that the term "bent" should be big enough to include all hacks of old gear--both hardware and software.

Nullsleep also disagrees with that, and thinks circuit bending only applies to ripping apart and rewiring with no specific end in mind. [My phrasing--isn't that what we decided distinguished circuit bending from hacking?]
