Yes, that would be interesting. I imagine Ge to be so swamped with requests,
ideas and sugestionsright now that we might as well ask for this in half a
year or so...

Some time back there was discussion here about a DVD or book. I think that
if a performance can be send to a projection monitor it can also be send to
a VCR, that wouldn't place any aditional strain on the performer or the
computer. I could imagine working with the DVD facilities for multiple
angles so the viewer could switch between seeing just the performer's
schreen and seeing the whole stage/context. So far many of the videos about
livecoding I've seen have been impressive, enjoyable and completely
unreadable.
Andrew Sorenson has a good one here:

That looks excelent and I'll watch that, the audio for this performance was
very polished indeed.
While we're at it, if you have some time, I'd be very interested in hearing
about what techniques you used for those counterpoint melodies in your own
set as well.
