The Day of Noise, April 2nd, 1998
The Day of Noise is A 24 hour event, dedicated to
live, improvised sounds, beginning Wednesday night at
midnight and wrapping around the clock to midnight Thursday
night. This year, the performers on the Day of Noise will
include:
- Robert Rich - midnight-2am
One of the pioneers of ambient music. In the early 80s
(while a student at Stanford) he held the first of his
"sleep concerts", foreshadowing the rave "chill space"
concept by over a decade. Since then he's released a huge
amount of work over the years, including collaborations with
people ranging from Brian Lustmord to Lisa Moskow.
- superdave and co - 2am-3:30am
KZSU's own superdave joins forces with some friends. Expect
them to start in the jungle, and race off to who knows
where.
- The Machinery of Doom - 3:30am-6am
gurgle. chime. whisper. bang!
- Faustina - 6am-8am
A break-through eclectic DJ on the local college radio
scene, Faustina returns to do one of her own unique noise
mixes.
- Glenn, the Love Rhombus - 8am-10am

such as Stella Luna, Mandible Chatter, and The Indestructible
Beat of Palo Alto.
- Matt Ingalls - 10am-11am

bubbling with ideas, as always.
