Prior to and after I had submitted my proposal for this class to Dean Gilmore, I discussed my concepts with students and faculty in the halls to get their support and listened to their reactions to this audio-centered class. I also mentioned that I will write to the Proctor & Gamble Company in Cincinnati Ohio US expressing to them my desire to have their corporate consent in sponsoring any upcoming and related Audible Constructs class endeavors. I especially complemented P&Gs IVORY floating soap and their other non-polluting products like Ivory Flakes laundry detergents. (I can't remember details of my remarks, but they did relate to cleaning up streams, etc.) A newly installed Xerox black and white copier in the art office cost 5 cents per copy; however, since I sent my letter and attachments from a west side apartment and included a draft proposal of my class, I did not make copies on SAIC's machine. It was both an ear opening and an ear witnessing experience for my self and the students.;All of which went their respective ways, and later learned Ed Heffernan went into teaching in the south west, and some people stayed on for two semesters. Les Doyle was a key assistant during our temporary Paw Paw,Michigan, US snow flake monitoring installation. I'm not sure what ever happened to The Greedy Suckers band member(featuring their Arp synthesizer input). At some point in the class collectivelt we like to have played into FM transmitters broadcasting to the shores lining the river. Ame the Suckers performing from atop giant ivories- on thr south bound Chicago River- the players would have slowy drifted west to east on this river-paralleling a portion of upper Wacker Drive- in front of the Merchandise Mart, Goldberg Towers, Sun-Times. Wrigley, Chicago Tribune, London Guarantee buildings and beneath several north-sound bridge over passes. They of course would have been required to stop short of floating onto Lake Michigan. Here's the response I receive after I tried my hand at "going commercial" for the sound cause. http://www.d.umn.edu/~lbrush/P%26Greply.jpg
