Tue Jul 5 12:15:06 EDT 2005

hello everyone,

well DJing at the Hirshhorn Museum for VISUAL MUSIC in DC (a great 
exhibit... go see it) and on the top of the i-20 Gallery building for 
Evelina Domnitch + Dmitry Gelfand's amazing installation CAMERA LUCIDA 
(which transfers some of my sound work into visuals via a 
sono-chemi-luminescent process... very complicated) see more about it 
here http://www.portablepalace.com

this summer will be spent re-designing and re-launching LINE in a new 
direction in some cases.
after 5 years its time to expand... expect some surprises !!

happy summer to you :)
richard

OUT NOW  > CD .  "Tempt (live ending, Transmediale 2003 Berlin)" on 
MUTEK compilation  [ Mutek_Rec, Canada ] This 2CD compilation of all of 
the artists from the upcoming MUTEK festival will have a very loud, 
very aggressive 8 minute live piece which was the end of my performance 
at Transmediale 2003 in Berlin which took many people by surprise. 
well... i was drunk and had to compete with Akufen in the main room.... 
wouldn't you get noisey? enjoy... this work was also recently 
reworked/performed in part at the DECIBEL festival last year in 
Seattle. JUNE 1, 2005

OUT SOON > 2CD .  Re'post'post-fabricated  [ DSP Recordings, Italy ] 
This 2CD project will have the reformed/remastered Post-Fabricated CD 
(originally issued on CDR on Dutch label Microwave in 1999 as an 
edition of 222). I was never happy with the sound quality of the final 
master due to the engineer and my analog recording limitations at the 
time. This is an odd recording for me, which you could say is my most 
"pop" release in its quirky rhythmic elements. The second CD is 
remixes/reworkings from the original files by Frank Bretschneider, COH, 
Taylor Deupree, Freiband, Goem, Alva Noto, Byetone, Sogar, SND, Asmus 
Tietchens, Vend, Matmos, Steve Roden, and myself.  
http://www.dsprecs.com. also there will be two extra MP3 of mixes by 
Taylor Deupree and Goem not on the cd that will be available on the DSP 
website which you can download now! JULY  2005
