Lines: 21 Summary: Expires: Sender: Followup-To: Distribution: Keywords: Xpath: stc stc-b stc-a What about John Varley's Symbs in the 8 worlds series? My books are at home (natch) but I remember one pair, Barnum and Bailey whose speciality was composing. All the symbs had great artistic talent of some kind. B + B's masterwork was catalysed by sex, if I remember right. They used an emotion-linked synthesiser. I *LIKE* John Varley stories, even the not_quite_so_good ones. And for an obscure (SF && music) title - 'I love you, Miss Robot' by the Buggles (1980ish). -- Peter Kendell ...mcvax!ukc!stc!pete 'The same dudes you abuse on your way up You might meet up on your way down'
