| ARTIST/TECH NOTES: |
|
|
"BESIDES MY VARIOUS 6-STRING HIGH-FREQUENCY INTERFACE TRANSDUCERS (EQUIPPED WITH THE WAVEFORM DIFFERENTIAL COMMONLY KNOWN ON EARTH AS THE BIGSBY TREMOLO ARM), I AM FOND OF A DEVICE CALLED THE RAT. THIS SMALL WEATHERBEATEN BLACK BOX RENDERS THE SIGNAL INCOMPREHENSIBLE TO THE HUMAN EAR UNLESS CONTROLLED CORRECTLY BY THE OPERATOR. A USEFUL DEVICE FOR COMBATING THE SILENCE OF SPACE." - TRACE READING |
