For what it's worth...I listened to this piece a couple of times and found
a lot of enjoyable and interesting material in it... but while listening,
I wanted it to have a little more sense of "going somewhere".

***I think this is one of my favorite Chris Bailey pieces...

I like the manic energy and the exceptionally fine sound palette...

That reminded me, I started downloading it yesterday at
12:30 pm. Yep! Here it is - it only took 3h:57m to download ...

Well ... [6m:46s later] ... I like it, too! :-)

Also, I'm glad to say, I can't readily classify it.

Christopher, I'll be looking out for your next one.

Regards,
Yahya

***Wow, Yahya! What country are you writing from? Chris Bailey's
mp3 is, indeed, 6 megs, but I used to upload and download files of
that size with a dial-up connection and it would take a half-hour to
45 minutes at best... but 4 hours?? :(

Hi Joseph,

Yeah, it was a bit poor, wasn't it?

Got a crummy connection - old phone exchange, and a pair-gained
phone line, which halves the theoretical maximum speed of this 56
kbps modem. So if I get sustained download speeds of 2.5kBps,
I'm quite happy! Anyway - beats the first modems I ever used
- seriously! - 330 bps, bigger than a house brick and, being made
mostly of iron, far too heavy for thieves to bother with ...

The country is Australia, the city is Melbourne (population around
2.3 million last time I looked, but growing fast with lots of new
immigration from Asia, Europe, the Americas, the Pacific Islands
etc). So you'd think I could do better, eh? Well, a broadband
connection costs around AUD $40 a month and upwards - and
over $60 before they start to remove download capping. Heck,
we've got premium cable TV service and that costs under $80
a month for a whole LOT more data ... While we're watching TV,
I'm not going to be able to afford to download a lot more data.
:-)

More relevant to THIS group, is that for me the main purpose
of internet access is to tap into the ideas and experience of
others. Mailing lists and email are just SO much more efficient
and practical than the older alternatives - snail mail, travelling
to conferences etc.

Regards,
Yahya
