Abstract
Loops as Genre Resources
Glenn Stillar


Curently in the throws odf finishing off my honours thesis, also got
way to side tracked into the mata metaphorical framework of loops and
cybernetic perception than music looping.  Not sure whther to write
the project up as an anthopological investigation and report of this
community or my practice setup. Aahh the pererls of not having clear
research boundaries. Maybe if i had done a science degree of some
sort.....

If i pluck up the courage, Ill post that through soon.
