Jim O'rourke Interview (from Salon Magazine)

[rsadlier]

Anyone else notice he's playing a Squier?

[tmg1968]

Sniff another line of nose candy Jimbo! You're a genius!

[8iamretarded8]

hehe i feel a little more happy with my own approach now - shuffling blocks of audio around till it develops into coherent sound with a 'feel' & a life of its own

[liquidsnake1979]

he's a genius, i can't believe he's only used midi twice.

[ponyoak]

Is O'Rourke wearing a Kurt Cobain costume?

[jesse825cool]

@ponyoak i think that's the same rough green overcoat that kurt cobain wore on the unplugged show

[MrPatachou]

There used to be videos of the show we see in this clip on youtube, with "not sport, martial art" and "halfway to a threeway"... Anyone knows where they've gone ?

[JohnnyJohnnyJohnny]

God I wish I had the breadth of capabilities that guy does.

I don't have the patience to learn MSP, really. Maybe if I had a better guide, though... But probably not.

[Crueltool8]

he should've been a scientist

[nathanidiothend]

i wish there was more o'rourke stuff on this youtubeness

[barnycharny]

[LonelyHunterPjotr]

[sampppppppppp]

Does anyone know what the track they're playing at the beginning is? I don't recognise it at all.

[hardearnedfunny]
