On Sep 9, 2011:
I started my idea for The Philly Robot Experiment. The idea first started because of my friend Marcus and his website www.wftmusic.org. (this fine web site in no longer working) ,which is based in Japan.
I wrote a free piece of music for the WTF community (Japan) and it is called Robot Beings meet the world. The Robot piece is like a story but with written suggestions to perform. For example, in the beginning of the piece the performs are to make up sounds of Robot ship taking off into space etc. As the performer moves through the music the simple robot story continues...
As I met more artist from the WFT community they began to send me live music to improvise along too.
So... I recently decided to do a whole CD (Avant free music) of this type of
interaction with my friends in Japan (who are originally from Philly), and some local musicians from Philly.
The Turtle Sessions were recorded at Turtle Studio in 11/2011
