i met john gunther the sax player of this band this october. this guys are REALLY REALLY well educated in music

[vth42]

Wow, cool.  What is that thing attached to the top of the guitar?

[bruceedwardarnold]

That would be an X Keys Stick which controls the computer program SuperCollider. You will notice that the sound I'm using is a combination of delay and reverb. These sounds come from me playing through this program. The X Keys Stick allows me to select different sounds in the program

Do you has some sort of thermin attached to your guitar? Regards, really cool stuff here... I'd love to see Ligeti put into this context

The name Spooky Actions is derived from a comment by Albert Einstein, in which he noted that

certain seemingly unrelated objects could nevertheless exert a powerful influence upon each other.

He called these relationships spooky actions at a distance. Spooky Actions, the band, certainly

personifies this concept, showing how vivid and accessible improvisations can be derived from

music that is often thought of as etched in stone.
