The Delta - Pop (Synthetic Remix) / PCB From The Carseats
Will give almost anything for this record. Check my collection and see if there is anything you want and maybe we can trade. Send me a pm if you have it for sale/trade.
If I find it I will give it to you for free.

Oh yeah, I heard that too! That's nuts to think about... Who comes up with this kind of stuf?!? Tarski, I guess
My math skills aren't very impressive, but I was sort of forced to learn for my thesis. It was fun though, and it got more fun, the deeper I dug into it. It's so cool, that pure number-crushing can be used for aesthetic purposes.

EXACTLY.
the banach tarski paradom theorem has been refined down to five pieces now.
it does happen to rely on an axiom of set theory that not all mathematicians
are comfortable with.
Another totally mindblowing result in Logic is Godel's 1925 paper of one
page that single handedly destroyed the idea that mathematics was perfect
or 'complete'

hehe, and I chose the other route
the orthogonal bases for function spaces are an infinite but countable
set of othogonal or even nicer orthonormal 'function basis vectors'
A very relatable example is: Function Space >>> set of differentiable functions
orthonormal basis >>> {cos(n*Pi*x)} for all integers n. This is the Fourier
basis vector set. The meaning is that any differentiable function say from
R >> R can be represented as an infinite linear combination of the cosine
functions.
There are tons of other polynomial sets and other things that can do this as
well...
Man some of the Analysis shit I studied was fascinating.
One interesting result is a topological proof called the banach tarski paradox.
Basically it says that you can cut up a grapefruit into six extremely complicated
pieces and then reassemble the pieces into two grapefruits of the same size!!

Anytime
Actually, I did my master thesis on FFT, used for pitch-shifting. Is pretty much the same as time-stretching, since if you can timestretch perfectly, then you can pitch-shift perfectly - and vice versa. I made a realtime algorithm extending the SuperCollider language. Great fun, and I leanred ALOT of math in the process!

cool another math guy
I am particularly interested in Orthogonal Series bases in
infinite dimensional vector spaces / function spaces - so I am right
keen on the Fourier stuff

maybe I'm not making sense. I'm pretty tired ATM
what I meant I guess is that he mentioned that the
supply is now much <<< I gather more limited because
some of the material was destroyed.
Heh I think I lost you
He said
then you say:
How are you able to re-define something based on his info when he himself claims it is not defined yet?
I think I'm confused.
The only thing I did is provide a snapshot of a demand when it appeared on e bay which indeed was great....I'm not saying e bay must be used as the only or proper measure of how valuable something is, but he appeared to not know about it being sold, so perhaps it would be useful as a guidance.

However, the new information we have from draeke redefines the value.
I still contend that it is the most valuable Goa Trance CD for a small
circle of fanatics, and that after that 'pool' is exhausted, the larger Symbiosis
fan base makes Accidental Occidentalism the pricier item.
That is to say, the first X Crop Circles disks vs X AO disks will see a
greater yield for CC for some integer X. That integer is a matter of debate
if you accept my reasoning, but I believe it is approximately 5-15.

UFK 93004 Blue Planet Corporation - Overbloody Flood (Underground French-Kommunication)
UFK 94008 Blue Planet Corporation - Presents The Second EP (Underground French-Kommunication)
Most of the shit in here I have and will relinquish for trade:
Ideally I'd actually like UFK 93004 - both versions= black vinyl + blue vinyl

Does anyone know something about this?
-value
-history/significance
thx

...listening to it again...memories...

Oh no, it's not really that complicated and difficult. You don't need to have any rhythm-detection and such, to write a decent timestretch... Also, that would not work with non-rhythmic sound. An FFT based solution is to compute the discrete fourier transformation (can be done easily in matlab, or sh*t-fast in C with the FFTW library) - and then insert more frames than the original sound has to stretch, or remove some frames to time-compress - and finally applying the inverse FFT. A niftier solution is to interpolate between frames though. Then there is the issue of phases, which often need heavy correction - but it's not that hard... If you want, I can dig out some cool articles - else, look for Jean Laroche and Michael Dolson.
Many algorithms (spelling?!?) work entirely in the tiime domain - still without rhythm detection. Granular solutions are good.

Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines of 'interpolating between the frames'
as you said. Thanks for quenching my overly complicated notion on it with a
much tidier explanation. I will have a look at Laroche and Dolson. Thanks

abasio, Crop Circles has also the members from Lotus Omega making
the CC enterprise a six person collaboration.
Nah, I'm sure I didn't 
What new music did you get today?

tidy little catch there ukiro.
