Episode notes
Electronic music pioneer Suzanne Ciani talks to host Kate Hutchinson about the Buchla synthesizer’s counter cultural beginnings, breaking through as a rare woman in early electronic sound in the 1970s, sleeping on Philip Glass’s floor, why she never became a Warhol Superstar, the importance of risk, the sensual slowness of sine waves and what drives her as an artist and innovator now.
