I've been saying this since we were discussing the nature of live coding performance in the earliest livecode list posts, and around 2002/2003 when a few of us were conceptualising what we aim to do in live performance. I'm glad if the message is now punching out, though I have to keep punching myself on the issue; always can improve the twists and turns.

I like that we both feature Scheme Bricks with an image, but have different programs in our respective shots ; )
