Kaz Maslanka Electronic Music 1979-1988

I would like to thank Joel Sanderson for his work in archiving the work on this blogpost.

Here is an archive of some of my electronic music from 1979-1983


During the day that I met John Cage, a video was taken to document the event at the University of Kansas in Lawrence Kansas (Home of William S. Burroughs) In this video at seconds 28 to 38 you can see me reading statements from Cages work. It is hard for me to express how hard I connected to John Cage in that period of my life. His "Indeterminacy" record (1959) was a profound influence on my thinking. In this video you can see Cage and Burroughs chatting.

Here is a link to that video
