I only have access to fairly basic equipment (apart from a six-year-old sampler) so apple oggies for any sound/picture problems.

Hardware:
*A cheap second-hand camera that does video but not sound (£not-very-much-at-all)
*A Napa MP3 player with a tiny dinky microphone (£10 in Newton Abbot market)
* A Dell computer (£300, savng for which involved having a bean on toast for Christmas) (violin music)
* A freeview box that can't get channel 4 properly - good source of glitch video. (bundled w/tenancy - belongs to housemate)
* A USB stick really comes in handy. Get one. No, get two. Mine is 2GB. How does it all fit on? (£14 in Smiths. Try the sales)
* A dictaphone (£a snip from Argos)
* Korg electribe sampler - there are still some around...

Software:
* Old tapes and minidiscs from my Amiga years (Adios Amiga!) (£whatever Amigas cost in 1994)
* Wavepad (free)
* Audacity (free)
* Windows movie maker (bundled w/pooter)
* AVS video editor (free)
About Me:
 
I am a sound artist (ie I can't play) turning to the dreaded innertubes after other avenues dried up.
Formation Date:
August 27, 1983
Record Label:
i should be lucky
Label Type:
Unsigned
Band Members:
Just me, actually, although I've played with the A band. Once.
Influences:
I think "the usual bunch" goes in here, TG, cabs, neubauten. But stick in OMD, Laurie Anderson, Delia Derbyshire and oooh, The Flying Lizards and that roughly covers it.
Sounds Like:
What is this, Charades? Not Gillcup. (please mentally append "but not as good" to the following names) Kraftwerk (before they were good), Ussachevsky, Louis and Bebe Barron, Autechre, Chen Yi (that one's foxed yer, hasn't it!), Pan Sonic, Astral Social Club, Terry Riley (yeah, dream on Martin!), (rummages through back numbers of The Wire), Wolf eyes (a bit), Leafcutter John, John Oswald
Hometown:
Wherever I lay my hat (someone sits on it)
Country:
United Kingdom
Albums: (Edit)

We are waiting for the right time to the Jersey Devil hunt, we need to get everyone ready and we need some more equipment, it'll be soon.
