EMP Metheny

 

I’m in Seattle this week for the EMP Pop Conference, presenting under the banner of music and technology. My jam will be Pat Metheny’s Orchestrion project, which reached American shores last week. Tour dates can be found here; I last wrote about the project right here. After the jump, a mess of stuff I’ll be using in the presentation.
