Brown/Gelb Duo A duo combining live interactifve electronic music with traditional Japanese bamboo flute. Phil Gelb has studied both traditional and contemporary shakuhachi literature in the U.S. and Japan, and has collaborated with such musicians as Richard Teitelbaum, Pauline Oliveros, and Dana Reason.
The Hub An ensemble that explored a new genre called "Computer Network Music", the six composer/performers of The Hub electronically coordinated the activity of their individual systems through a central microcomputer, "the hub" itself, as well as manually through ears,eyes, and hands. The Hub sought surprise through the lively and unpredictable responses of their systems, and instead of trying to eliminate the imperfect human performer, used the electronic tools available to enhance the social aspect of music making. The Hub is John Bischoff, Tim Perkis, Chris Brown, Scot Gresham-Lancaster, Mark Trayle, and Phil Stone.
