karmadog: COME TO THE KARMADOG LIVE SHOW AND CD RELEASE THIS FRIDAY, FEB. 3! GREENPOWER CO-OP: 3115 MEMORIAL DRIVE IN TWO RIVERS. SHOW STARTS AT 7. IT WILL BE AWESOME. IF YOU DON'T SHOW, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS A DUM-DUM. We aren't sure where Karmadog came from. What we do know is that it is an artificial intelligence whose primary function seems to be creating music-like sounds. Karmadog is currently believed to be in orbit above the earth, in some kind of artificial satellite, although it is possible that this satellite is merely retransmitting a signal from elsewhere, possibly beyond our solar system. At any rate, Karmadog sends wireless cyberpathic signals directly to the brains of a few musicians living in Wisconsin, who then perform music as dictated by Karmadog. Thus, while it may appear that the musicians are improvising, they are in fact performing music composed by Karmadog. Presently, Karmadog has chosen three musicians to perform its compositions: Greg Pagel, Matt Turner, and Terry Iattoni. Karmadog has also infiltrated Soundcloud and uploaded some of its own mp3 files. NOTE: Next live transmission will be Friday, Feb. 3, 2012. Be prepared.
