I started to develop this electro-acoustic performance rig and approach as early as 1983... However this tape - from 1990 - represents the last stage of this direction in my work... since this may be one of my last public performances on drumset -etc... 
Link: http://query.nytimes.com/search/query?query=david+linton&srchst=nyt&d=...My old pal James Lo recently hipped me to the fact that an "ego search" on the the NY Times Arts page turns up all sorts of curios - some going back many years...etc This strikes me as a preferable alternative to scanning old xerox reviews and up loading them as hyper text dead jpegs's... So here's the link to the Times search page with links to a bunch of reviews:

i just came across a review of this recent book (April '07) in a back issue of Art Forum... the subject range sounds just right... i'm going out to the bookstore to look for it now... i'll let you know what i find...

You may view the archive at this link.... It's 30 minutes total...

This excerpt is an 'in studio' improvisation recorded at Moving Arts Amsterdam NL this August. Warm Thanks to Andre Agterof.

Link: http://www.sacred-texts.com/sex/tsf/index.htmI just bought a moldy cover less copy of this from an old hippie on Bedford Ave... It has evidently been out of print for quite some time. I'm reading it now... so far it's a plausible imaginative 'historical' thematicization of the intertwining of sexual and religious ritual ecstasies prefigured in ancient mythic text and image & followed up through the judeo christian era... and it's written in 1930 so it's a cultural artifact in and of itself...
In any case the entire text is evidently available online here for free... and you get the great little collection of illustrations contained in the original as well - examples posted here:

This may very well turn out to be a useful text for decoding the subliminal wash of "resultant" imagery bubbling up to the surface in "Bicameral Research S&P System" performances... if nothing more earth shaking than this -etc...

and yeah it seems the yogi's were the first to investigate such with the awareness of bicameral brain functions and the symmetry of the body - etc
haven't read it all yet but this site looks pretty cool...
Link: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03561a.htmWhat is it that elevates certain image/objects to the status of the mythical?
I think in this case it's the symmetry... which in my own little pet theory courts extended contemplation by creating a kind of binaural (2 channel) image loop between the bicameral halves of the brain (often with erotic connotations)... and thereby creates something like a hypnotic state...
evidence to the contrary anyone?
Evidently the design of this Christian symbol - is of medieval - not early Christian origin...
Link: http://www.alphabetvsgoddess.com/timeline.htmlHaven't read the book yet but this time line of the hypothetical shifts toward left or right brain dominance throughout the major periods of human history is enticing and seems at the outset to be completely parallel and compatible in time with Jayne's 'Bicameral' theory of consciousness...
