Just got the rather late news that Maryanne Amacher passed away this
past Friday at the age of 66. She was an incredible artist who had
worked with John Cage and studied under Stockhausen back in the day.
She created some wonderful works of ambient music along with
experimental sound installations. One of my most memorable discoveries
of her work was released on John Zorn's label Tzadik. It had a
composition that utilized frequencies capable of vibrating your
cochlear ear bone thus creating a very physical and interesting
listening experience. <br>
<br>
Here is a link of her hanging out with Thurston Moore. Contrary to what
the pitchfork net rag claims, Thurston is actually pushing out his ear
lobes to get the full effect of the ear vibrations. Something that I
also was told to do when listening to the song he is listening to. You
can't achieve the same effect with the compressed version of the audio
but you can actually get all of the following works from her release on
Tzadik:<br>
