Stanza
Among artist/programmers in the world of reactive/autogenerative software,
Stanza stands out as a Jedi's Jedi. His pieces not only develop gorgeously
and react interestingly, but he has the painterly ability to communicate
thematically in the amorphous language of abstract visuals. His 'amorphoscapes'
are a meta-series of reactive Director environments, each with its own
vibe. One series is warm and retro. Another series is industrial and futuristic.
Each series contains multiple pieces, and each piece contains multiple
variations. Kind of like a Bach fugue illustrated by Kandinsky in Lingo.

Meta-Music
for a Future Age
In 1995, an interviewer asked ambient music godfather Brian Eno, 'If you could
make anything, what would it be?' Eno answered, 'an Eno box that would create
its own music in my style.' Technology has finally caught up with Eno's theories,
enabling him to created 'Generative Music 1.' Also termed 'unfinished music,'
each piece plays out differently every time, but always within the same artist-defined
paramemters. Tired of the way a particular iteration is going? Just hit refresh
-- each composition is infinitely long, and infinitely varied. How will they
copyright this? - Curt Cloninger

Viva
La Lo-Tek!
Lfoundation.org is a collection of old Shockwave engines created by the off-the-wall
pranksters at crtrlaltdel.org. Unlike the lush, intricate Shockwave environments
at turux.org and submeta.free.fr, these experiments are decidedly old school
(which is still cool). Big, chunky, primary color blocks, audio that sounds
like it came from an analog Moog synth, ultra-thin file sizes, and lots of
blinking are all par for the course. Proof positive that interesting audio-visual
aesthetics are still achievable at dial-up speeds. - Curt Cloninger
