	🥁 5:02pm ranjit: hello!

	5:03pm Webhamster Henry: Brought to you by all the numbers and letters.
	5:06pm Miguel: Hi David!
	🥁 5:07pm Threemoons: I did my Senior Year German paper on Dadaism with an emphasis on Kurt Schwitters. SO looking forward to this....
	🥁 5:07pm WR: hello mudda, hello dadda.
	5:08pm northguineahills: I have an orange velum pieve of Hugo Ball's poetry in storage....
	🥁 5:08pm Threemoons: Clickystar favorite already clicked so I can listen to this whole set again when I am not concentrating on work....
	🥁 5:08pm ranjit: I'm using this as an excuse not to concentrate on work...
	5:09pm northguineahills: The 90s alt-rock band, Dada, was not dada....
	🥁 5:10pm david w: Hello Miguel and threemoons and WR, trapped at Camp Granada.
	5:10pm Webhamster Henry: Hugo Ball at ubu web : www.ubu.com...
	🥁 5:11pm Threemoons: @Webhamster thx!
	5:15pm Webhamster Henry: Always nice to hear a new Ursonate.
	5:15pm still b/p: This is persuading me to never concentrate or work again.
	🥁 5:16pm ranjit: I think still b/p has got the right approach.
	🥁 5:17pm david w: still b/p! Yes, concentration is over-rated.
	5:19pm still b/p: I do more nonsensetrating.
	5:42pm ruth: So fabulous D.! Thanks for that!!
	🥁 5:49pm ranjit: it's time to racket the baby
	🥁 5:50pm ranjit: racket the baby, jacket the baby, rinse th- the baby
	5:56pm Schell: Nice hearing Lynn Book again!
	🥁 5:57pm david w: Prof. Schell yes, agreed.
	6:00pm Woo: I missed Lynn Book. I took a class with her in Chicago in the early 90s. After one class I returned to my car to find my car radio stolen. Remember when car radios used to get stolen?
	6:01pm northguineahills: I'm a Swingle Singers fan!
	6:01pm Schell: "A three hour tour. A three hour tour"
	🥁 6:03pm david w: Hello, Woo. I guess you had a very good and very bad day back then.
	6:04pm Woo: Now they just jack the whole car. Much easier and cleaner.
	🥁 6:06pm david w: @Woo: I once had a sign on my car window that said "radio stuck on 1010WINS" (the all news all the time station in NYC) as a deterrent. Instead they stole the whole car!
	6:08pm still b/p: @ngh -- Came across some "not Swingle" trivia in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid imdb last night on imdb. "Contrary to popular belief, the vocalists on "South American Getaway" were not The Swingle Singers. It was performed by The Ron Hicklin Singers, a group of Los Angeles studio vocalists best known as the real singers behind the background vocals on The Partridge Family recordings."
	6:11pm northguineahills: @Still b/p, I'll save that for my obscure music night, like everything else I learn on WFMU. Thanks!
	🥁 6:12pm david w: My teacher, the composer Ben Johnston and no conservative musical hack, worked with the Swingles. It made me think about judging people.
	6:16pm northguineahills: Adachi Tomoni, new to me and digdug!
	🥁 6:17pm david w: ngh your obscure music night has arrived early!
	6:18pm Webhamster Henry: Nice processing here.
	6:22pm doctorjazz: Hello Ridgewoodnics!
	6:23pm northguineahills: There needs to be a WFMU music trivia night. W/ this company, even I would lose!
	🥁 6:23pm david w: docnic!
	6:24pm doctorjazz: I also like the Swingles!
	6:27pm northguineahills: I know Frransconi's music. I'm inspired by dada, but now I describe my music as post-fluxus.
	6:27pm Miguel: Aw, shucks, I’m blushing!
	🥁 6:29pm david w: Hope to do you proud here, sir Miguel, most deserved.
	6:30pm Miguel: Do you know it’s Duchamp’s birthday today? I met him when I was 8 at an exhibit of his work. My dad asked him if he would sign the exhibit catalog for him and and declined, saying if he did it would become one of his readymades. My first lesson in Dada!
	6:32pm Webhamster Henry: a Dada show on Duchamp's birthday is kind of appropriate.
	6:33pm Webhamster Henry: But IIRC, Schwitters didn't want to be associated with Dada; he preferred "Merz".
	🥁 6:33pm david w: To everybody: this is just one of Frasconi's many amazing encounters and I hope we can have him here in the studio one day to share more.
	6:34pm Webhamster Henry: Miguel, what's that bird call done on?
	6:35pm northguineahills: Heck, I have a book on Duchamp's work, and forgot. The most famous composer I met in person and talked to was Luc Ferrari, or Laurie Anderson, depending on your metric of what famous can be.
	🥁 6:35pm david w: Allegedly, Schwitters literally slammed the door in the Dada gangs face when they came to invite him to join.
	6:37pm Webhamster Henry: He should have stuck around and joined Oulipo. But he died too early.
	6:37pm Miguel: The bird call is an Acme Nightingale whistle, made in the UK.
	6:39pm Webhamster Henry: Acme Roadrunner whistle, famed in cartoons.
	6:40pm Miguel: They actually make all kinds of bird calls. I’m sure the coyote has their catalog. :)
	6:41pm northguineahills: This reminds me of my version of Cage's Ryoanji.
	6:41pm Miguel: The audio quality of these recordings are really amazing!
	6:42pm Miguel: I wrote this “solo for mbira” in 1976.
	🥁 6:43pm david w: @Miguel, glad to share the audio with you if you don't have it.
	6:43pm chresti: Hi David and Ruth and Ridgewoodians!
	6:43pm Gary: Another insanely cool show
	6:44pm Webhamster Henry: The WFMU Premium DVD "WFMU Gone Wild" (2005) has a Frasconi / Ricardo Arias glass piece in studio performance from Bethany Ryker's show, 6/6/2004
	6:44pm Miguel: Yes please!! I have the video, but not sure I ever got the recordings.
	6:44pm chresti: I love this!
	🥁 6:44pm david w: chresti, ahh, now I can exhale...
	6:44pm ruth: Hi chresti
	🥁 6:44pm david w: Thanks, Gary!
	6:46pm chresti: Thanks! Sorry can’t chat much today
	6:48pm Miguel: Most of these glass instruments have followed their natural evolution and are now shards.
	6:52pm northguineahills: I stopped making sounds w/ glass for that reason, I nearly cut myself a few times. Gracias, dacid, ruth, y miguel!
	6:55pm Webhamster Henry: Into the smashing movement.
	🥁 6:55pm david w: Thanks, all! Stay tuned for: Bodega Pop with Gary Sullivan 7-10pm EDT: Street Jams: Hip Hop 1979-83, a three-hour tour of the genre's first five years on wax wfmu.org... If You Lose Your Horse with Sam Segal 10-midnite
	6:55pm Miguel: Playing glass is an exercise in both non-attachment and accepting change. On the other hand, there are some I’ve had for 40 years.
	6:56pm Webhamster Henry: Ever make glass and play it then smash it in the same concert?
	🥁 6:57pm david w: Curious idea.
	6:57pm Webhamster Henry: I'm a wellspring of imaginary sound events!
	6:58pm ruth: What a great show! thanks DW! Bye bye!
	6:58pm Miguel: Thanks for such an extended set, David!!
	6:59pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks David! I was plenty distracted today!
	🥁 6:59pm WR: thank you David and Ruth!
	🥁 7:00pm david w: Thanks to all!
