Words about music (136): Patti Smith

Patti Smith
What I wanted to do in rock 'n' roll was merge poetry with sonic scapes, and the two people who had contributed so much to that were Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.

Have Frank Zappa scrapbook, will travel

KUR Frank Zappa Scrapbook

Webmaster Barry of Kll Ugly Radio has a cool idea. A Frank Zappa snailmail scrapbook. Huh?

I was thinking: why not do something similar with the entire KUR readership? It would work something like this: I buy a blank sketchbook, put my contribution on page one, and then pass it on by snailmail to the next person in line, who in turn passes it on once s/he’s finished — much the way an Uncle Beat vine works. Once all the pages are filled up (or there no longer is anyone next in line), the last recipient sends it back to me. I would then scan in every single page and post them here and/or on Flickr.
