terre thaemlitz was brought up in relation to gender (drews post, which i
read at like 4am :)

just wanted to let folks know that there is a pretty in depth article on
him in the new wire.  he is the cover story.  

i have not finished reading the article yet (it may be a little too in
depth) -- but, for those of you who are not familiar with terre -- he
deals quite a bit with gender issues and the denaturualization (is that
the word he uses?) of gender in society by taking gender out of the normal
context.  

the music terre writes, as he says, is a reflection of his perspective on
gender -- that is, he is removing sounds from their normal context.. kinda
like cross dressing with music.

i dont know.  figured folks might be interested.

i personally find gender issues very interesting, but over generalizations
very insulting.. so this is a love/hate thread for me.

also, someone recently did an interview with wendy (windy?) carlos.  is
this transcribed anywhere?
