Tom Whitwell @tomwhitwell “The Pranksterstake to the bandstand, all electrified, and they start beaming out the most weird loud Chinese science-fiction music and cranking up the Buchla electronic music machine until it maneuvers itself into the most incalculable sonic corner, the last turn in the soldered circuit maze, and lets out a pure topologically measured scream.” Tom Wolfe, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
