When samplers were first introduced I was still cutting 1/4" tape to make loops of 4 track audio that ran around the studio in big loops from multiple decks. The loops sagged from car antennae bent into shape and telescoped to the right length to keep tape rolling freely through the decks. I kept the loops in jars looking like shoelaces or a strange insect collection.

 

LARGER THAN LIFE was the title of a film I was developing at the time (1984ish) which attempts to illustrate that the apparent randomness of every moment is in fact imbued with a perfect order, a kind of ongoing symphony of moments, distinguished from chaos the way an orchard will do while driving by and all of a sudden the random and chaotic forest turns into perfect corridors. From then on you look out at the chaos and you know that in it is that perfect order, if you watch and listen.
