Episode Synopsis

My being no Glenn Branca, soldiered forth anyway in honor of what he's done. Started with one actuator (an electric toothbrush) and 4 resonators (a pewter pitcher, a ceramic fruit bowl, a bowl-like bit of clear plastic packaging, and a metal mixing bowl). Recordings of those physical interactions got messed about by a smartphone program, Reelwave, that emulates varispeed playback of a open reel tape deck. All that was played through a found karaoke machine with built-in echo and recorded to ten tracks (twice my usual--to fit in with the "massive" Glenn Branca theme of this Junto), then mixed down to six minutes plus of noisy droney.
