No, but. I did see an installation he did in 1981, with soundscapes of this period. Several modified colour TV sets, set up on end so they were narrow and tall, showing urban places in the distance, but mostly the sky above, with clouds moving almost imperceptibly slowly. No one was there, because no one was interested yet.

As to the question asked in the grafitti above: I try not to be so complicit, by protesting against this government and its support of Israel's military. I go to a weekly vigil to protest our Democrat congressperson who's pro-Zionist. I go often to larger protests for Gaza. I went to one last Thursday.

the Ottomans had a tradition of caring for all animals, building and funding bird hospitals, paying silver to bakeries so that they could afford to feed stray dogs and cats without going hungry themselves, even sending food into the hills to feed the wolves, the wicked island massacre saw 80,000 or more dogs rounded up and exiled to starve, too far from land to swim back but close enough for the people to hear them dying. It also saw an end to the bird hospitals, the subsidized feeding, and the people of turkiye still believe that this is what caused the fall of the empire

i'm sure there were big bucks involved with the making of this album... but you have to wonder what eno was thinking working with u2...was he enteraining himself in some sort of bemused way?

i'm sure eno didn't have to choose between u2 and a ditch... but somehow u2/ditch make a resonant either /or
  8:03am

Due to the time limit, U2 were forced to write and record songs at a more rapid pace. They continued their long-time practice of jamming in the studio. Eno used an eraseable whiteboard to give instructions and cues to the band while they jammed; he pointed at chords and various commands, such as "hold", "stop", "change", and "change back", to direct their performances. Flood recorded the material, while Eno alternated between performing with U2 and joining Flood in the control room. At the end of a given week, Eno and Flood compared their notes and compiled the week's best jams onto a cassette for the band to listen to.

Hi Brian, I had two official shows at Kaustinen (one purely acoustic, one with PA and effects), plus a last-minute unofficial one in a small trailer, which was my favorite of my shows. Of the shows by others, the one that stayed most in memory was Anna Maret, a project with Sami joik singing, jouhikko, electronics and video. Can't wait for the album to come out in August.

He actually introduced it by saying it was an homage to Negativland, "a band none of you has heard of".

Hiya Mr Currents; I’m curious abt this 45rpm/7”singles boxset = is it an All Roxy set or a mixed bag of 45’s? I woulda thought this version of “2HB” derives from “Let’s Stick Together” 1976 solo Ferry album?! I forgot that 2HB refers to Humphrey Bogart Casanova motifs. (as opposed to lead pencils & eggs)😜.
