Marcia Bassett might be the busiest woman in improvisational music -
GHQ,
Double Leopards,
Hototogisu, her duo work with Tom Carter in
Zaika, and her own work in
Zaimph. I was listening to a variety of Zaimph pieces this afternoon and suddenly realized how much her solo work is like
Robert Fripp and Brian Eno collaborations. The repetitive loops sound like
No Pussyfooting, while the scarier mood pieces are like "An Index of Metals" from Fripp and Eno's
Evening Star. It's impossible to keep up with all her work, but I sure hope she plays Colorado some time soon.

That picture of her is awesome!
Yeah, like how exactly do you "play" a beer can? Anything like playing a bong?
