Wiardgroup

Hello There,

I thought I'd send this out to all of you who might be interested in
electronic music (particularly electronic music produced on Wiard
equipment).

Members of MEME (rhymes with gene), the Midwest Electronic Music
Ensemble, will be performing live on the Radio and on the Internet 
on April 5th at midnight eastern time (11:00 PM central). The radio
station is WCBN 88.3 FM in Ann Arbor Michigan and the show is the
Electrik Kingdom (hosted by Chris Stecker). If you're not in the Ann
Arbor area you can listen to the streaming audio of the program by
going to www.wcbn.org and clicking on "listen live".

The MEME members that will be performing (and chatting with Chris)
are: Nick Wilson on heavily processed electric violin and samplers,
and Michael Firman on a twelve+ module Wiard system, Korg Electribe
ER-1, and devices.

The music will be a mixture of composed and improvised pieces and
should feature some interesting sounds and sonic textures (with a
few beats thrown in for good measure).

MEME has been around now for five years and consists of seven members
(five of which are active members): Grant Richter, Darwin Grosse,
John Papiewski, Nick Wilson, Michael Firman, Andre Stordeur, and 
Jack McCarthy (Andre and Jack are now both living outside of the
midwest). MEME performs live on a variety of electronic instruments
including various modular synthesizers. MEME is devoted to the
production of live, creative, electronic music. More information 
about the group can be found at http://www.mlswebworks.com/meme.html

Note: The above is going out to several lists, but since this
is the Wiard list I thought that I would add that the performance will
use a lot of the Woggle Bug and some custom EPROMS in two Wave Form
City modules. We will be on for a couple of hours so there should be
a lot of Wiard spashed all over the airwaves (and Internet).

Later,

| Michael A. Firman
