And so the fall semester began. The DISIS gang is back on campus digging into the laptop orchestra. Last week we finally made sound as an ensemble with our little netbooks and lovely hemi speakers and it was over-9000-amazing!

Last Friday we’ve had a great honor of hosting Dr. Gary Lee Nelson, a legend among the computer music community and a great friend. For the uninitiated, Gary is the founder of Oberlin College’s famous TIMARA studios and an amazing composer and teacher. He is also known for being the co-author of the MIDI Horn, the World’s first wind-controller-based MIDI instrument produced in collaboration with John Talbert (another really cool guy!). Gary recently retired from Oberlin, yet it seems he is now busier than ever.
So, we managed to convince Gary to take a photo with our Hemis in hope his endorsement would convince you that L2Ork is indeed as cool as we think it is ;-).

“And he’ll be chasing them with the soldering iron..”
“Talk about a BRANDING campaign!”
I was told not to indicate who created that little number.

This is a list of knowledge I have gained from L2Ork. I will probably end up adding more to it later.
1. DISIS is cool. No really, the AC is always blasting. (Well I knew that already, but I am constantly being reminded.)
2. When various parts of speakers, wires, and cable housings are burned, they smell like McDonalds.
3. Soldering is fun!
4. After a period of about two weeks, lesson #3 is void.
5. Linux penguin is sneaky.
6. When I have enough money I’m going to get some BMWs. That’s right, ALL five seasons.
7. Cory may not be as attractive as Shawn but he is “boyfriend” material whereas Shawn is not.
8. Mister Feeny may be grumpy but he holds in him countless life lessons.
9. There are many names with which one may refer to a wire stripper.
10. Anything can be accomplished if you can get enough people to help. (Easier if you can grow an ico-stash.)
11. L2Ork=L2Ove.
