RIP PLEASURE: Bruce Haack - Farad The Electric Voice (Collected Recordings 1969-1982)





From the liner notes...

"I do a lot with touch - let electricity flow through our bodies and touch each other and the electricity becomes sound - through the speaker-of-the-house. I created Farad - An electronic voice - far out Michael Faraday - anyday - everyday. Farad is programmed by touch and by proximity relays - and Farad is impossible to work with. The human voice is so much better. But in order to tell you what I know, I had to build everything myself." - Bruce Haack (1969)

*The recordings skip a little from here to there (beyond my patience to figure out why at this point) but the stuff is definitely still worth listening to. Hope you guys dig it...
