I heard from Joel Timm of Arcosanti yesterday, and we are GO for an officially promoted concert in the 2003 Colly Soleri Music Center Concert Series. We have...
We need some words to describe the types of music that this is all about. We all know what it is, but the rest of the world may not understand. e.g. Electronic...
Hi Greg. I agree that we can't just call it Electronic Music because of the stereo types. Local authorities and people ignorant of our genre are starting to...

I have been reading all the traffic on this so far and have listened to all points of view. And will continue to do so. My thoughts are as follows: The way...
... Sounds like a fair plan to me, although I know nothing about the catchment area of Arcosanti, how far people come, how long it takes them, when they...

We seem to be getting pretty close on the description of the music. How about the event? Is it a festival, workshop, gathering, conference, show, happening,...
... That's a fair point, and it certainly wouldn't benefit us in any way to be seen as hypocritical. But "us" is a big word, here, and while I don't find any...

... The words I've been using so far have been either "shindig" or "barbecue." I think we may need a bit more than that for the official press, tho. Off the...
