Yes that was amusing about Sonology being "gone". Rumours of our
demise are a tad premature. The aforementioned people are still
here and doing great work as usual. Stan will retire next year
after teaching so many of us here about DSP and Systems Theory.
We also have all of the old gear, and Jo Scherpenisse is here too
who built an awful lot of the old and new gear (and realised some
of Stochaousen's requirements for him). Last year he was even
looking into simulating a VOSIM oscillator in Csound. . .
Cheers, from the basement in a sunny Den Haag,
