Recording of Bengt Hambraeus' Doppelroho II. The title indicates that Hambraeus has used as his basic material the range of tones produced by an organ. In this work timbral manipulation becomes a new compositional element. The importance of the organ is immediately established not only in its exclusive use, but as one of the most effective timbral fillers of the gap between live and electronic music.

Recording of Christian Clozier's Lettre à une demoiselle. This piece uses music written on a newspaper, a sheet, in an attic, in view of an open window on an impassive river, at a flowery table, around two o'clock in the morning, in a low voice, in memory of the companions of the Pleiad.

This play is a translation of a play performed by artists of Roop Raag at Rupmahal Theater on February 20, 1966. In Crimson Rainclouds, a Manipuri play from the 1960s, an artist determined to uphold his freedom is torn between his two loves, both only too gentle in their demands, and yet deeply caring.

For the time being at least, Gautam would go with her. The play draws on the playwright’s interactions with Ramkinkar Baij (1906-80), the eminent sculptor, with whom she studied in Santiniketan, and who has left behind a whole suite of sculptures and paintings of Binodini. The English translation of the play appears for the first time, followed by the original, now out of print, in both the Bangla and Meitei Mayek scripts; along with stills from two productions of the play and a couple of paintings of Binodini by Ramkinkar Baij, and a self-portrait by …

Recording of Sten Hanson's Don't hesitate, do it right now. This work consists of 4 separate pieces: 'Che', 'The Glorious Desertion', 'Don't hesitate, do it right now', and 'Revolution'. This collection of pieces were inspired by the ADC (American Deserters Committee), a group of American soldiers that found sanctuary in Sweden after deserting the American army during the Vietnam war. The spoken text in this piece is sampled from a speech given by Che Guevara, a public figure who took part in Castro's revolution.
