007 > 40 x 40 The seventh tape "40 x 40" took longer than any other tape in my catalog to make. I commissioned everyone I was writing at the time to send me 40 second pieces to work with and I proceeded to make forty 40 second compositions figuring that the time restriction allowed for many small ideas to be presented that may not stand on their own for longer duration.When I visited Hal McGee for the first time in November 1984 [Indianapolis, Indiana] he suggested I do a release with a series of short pieces. This work can be seen as a template of a world of releases to come. That's why I reissued this work on archive.org.
