Richie Hawtin/Plastikman interview on The Quietus

[Guest Mothers Against Noise]

Hi all,

 

Just thought I'd post up an interesting interview I did with mr. Plastikman recently. Love him or hate him, he has some interesting things to say on the future of vinyl, and these new multimedia plastikman shows he's been doing. Check it!

With Plastikman I wanted to create a multimedia show where one person on stage - which happens to be me - controls as much of the experience as possible, and has live control over that experience, which can change and create a different show each night. So on stage I'm using a whole bunch of technology, computer networking, wireless. And what that does is it gives me a direct connection to the lighting consoles, the visual computers and of course the audio.

 

show up at a plastikman show with the proper radio jammer in your pocket and he'd be fucked!

i thought a Plastikman show would be just a dark room, strobe light, 303/909 jams. why does he need all this technology?
