23.10.2001  Crouch End London it would be nice if you had a sample/online sounds on this site! Otherwise - excellent! Finn

19.8.2001  London So when will you be streaming it on the net? *Please* do it soon. Remember, time will run out on us sooner than it will run out on longplayer. J Stupor

13.8.2001  Sheffield Get it on-line as soon as possible! Charlotte

26.7.2001  berlin, germany cool concept! i am ready to hear the composition but am disappointed i can not. you really should consider streaming on web radio, it seems the perfect medium for such a project. Jah Pesky

9.6.2001  Luton, England It serms a mad idea to take on though this long player thing. I mean, what if the people who run it decides they dont want to do it any more. Exactly! You have to do it your whole life. Great idea, I just dont believe it will last a thousand years. Mark Justin

15.5.2001  London Absoutely excellent piece of sound engineering! It was the most enjoyable piece at the Dome and I must go to Trinity Wharf to see it again. Its so good I've used it as a focal point in a dissertation about generative music. Pity i wont be around for the next 998 years to hear it all! :O) Matt

23.3.2001  Cairo Egypt what an exciting idea and project...just great.cant wait till i can hear it in Alexandria ps:I wrote an artical about Longplayer in an Egyptian magazine....the effect is just great. yours Tarek sharara. Composer Tarek Sharara

21.3.2001  london I too discovered longplayer at the Dome's Rest Zone. I wish to add my voice of support to the others here asking for an internet transmission. I know that you have specifically commented here that a radio broadcast is preferential to Internet streaming but personally I find that quite disappointing. If you set up a live high-bandwidth stream it would not only be more permenant and less interrupted than your installations but it could also provide higher quality sound fidelity than a radio. I beg you to set up a live, 1,000-year long Internet stream of longplayer immediately! best tobyslater www.tobyslater.com Tobyslater

30.1.2001  canada why don't you put it on Real Audio over the web? Mike

29.1.2001  Tacoma, Washington, U.S.A. I'm very excited about this project and hope one day to hear it. I would also like to know more about how the music is composed by the computer and what possible changes could occur to the way it is played or presented. Andy Rick

29.12.2000  london i was really moved by the rest zone in the millenium dome and fell in love with longplayer-please let me know if it's ever going to be available on cd. Gloria Muikira

28.12.2000  Portsmouth, UK Longplayer is sounding fantastic at the Dome - please make it available over the Net soon Mark Scott

23.12.2000  Greenwich, UK An amazing piece of work, the most inspired thing ive encountered for a long time. Are there plans for the program to be made available on the net for download? A smaller version of the rest zone at college would be safe. Nice one, keep it going - truly a monument to the acheivements of man throughout the centuries. Zrenneh

23.12.2000  London the rest zone and Longplayer was the best part of the dome experience! Robert Stevenson

19.12.2000  London This is the most amazing display I have "seen" or say been to in many many years. So please please please put it on Radio World Services so that it can be heard everywhere.... E Sindlinger

19.12.2000  London The chimes are beuatifully suited to the long term nature of this project. These sounds will surely never date. Amanda Mint

19.12.2000  France Merci infiniment pour cette impression d'eternite. Florence Reidenbach

19.12.2000  London Beuatiful. The only constant in life is change! Anjalika Sagar

19.12.2000  Melbourne, Australia A pleasure to experience.Such a simple/complex idea. Helen Herbertson

18.12.2000  London On returning from the Dome, I immediately got on the internet to hear some more music - only to find it's not here yet, of course!I can't wait until it is. An amazing feat - it MUST be shared with everyone! Nick Coldham

10.12.2000  London, UK I think the music is GREAT, as i haerd it at the Dome. But can you PLEASE tell me how it works because it is confusing me slightly and we won't even be here in a 1000 years so you betta recruit someone you can trust and they better recruit someone they can trust and they better do the same.... LOL. So could you PLEASE explain to me how it works. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. :) Chetz

3.12.2000  Southampton I am dissapointed longplayer is not on the internet yet. Shaun

2.12.2000  Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania This is truly a brilliant idea. Might this be the next step in the evolution of the art world? The combining of machine and man in a project that will last several lifetimes is revolutionary, and my only regret is that I will not live to see it in its completion. N. Bruce

25.11.2000  London - Alexandria I look forward to listening again while watching the Mediterranean. Jo Maher

4.10.2000  Suffolk, England Having first experienced "longplayer" in the Millenium Dome I now eagerly await for the broadcast on the internet so more people can experience it, or should I say a tiny insignificant exerpt of this piece which will be here a long time after they will. Will Emeny

17.4.2000  venezuela Extremately exciting project, beautiful and elegant. Hope to get the chance to hear this profound music with no end. Elizabeth Villar

17.4.2000  Spokane, Washington, USA I think the most important feature of this project is the fact that no one human could ever manage it in its entirety ? that many generations must be intelligently linked to complete it. If that doesn't make you take pause and realize the importance of preserving enlightened, just, and sustainable societies, then what does? Bruce Saunders

31.3.2000  dublin ireland A wonderful big idea. The concept of 1000 years of music gives a sense of more than now. When I read about the site in an online newsletter I thought it sounded magic. The site itself is beautifully designed. Your vision is amazing. Sadly, even a baby technofile like me would enjoy connecting to a site/concept like this an actually hearing something. I wouldn't care if it was 2 cats moaning on a soft irish evening. At least I would feel part of the experience you are trying to create. Yes, I know there are all sorts of technical reasons why you are taking your time to stream music online --- but/and you may lose people because of this.The irony/paradox is that you have an amazing music concept with a vision that transcends generations online --- and we have to listen to it in physical space. Good luck anyway Liz Liz

30.3.2000  San Diego This is a fantastic venture! What an amazing and mind-boggling potential for uniting and stimulating global interest and communication through one of humankind's truly universal art forms. Bravo! Nolderhall

10.3.2000  godalming, surrey This is the most elegant response to the turn of the millenium that I have encountered. Something beautiful to outlast us all. Rob Turpin

10.3.2000  Liverpool UK Driving my car to work for another mundane day of my life, heard a radio report about Longplayer and for a moment everything seemed in perspective. Paul O'toole

5.3.2000  Central London A beautiful idea elegantly executed. If you disseminate the work onto the internet then its survival chances for the next 1000 years will be maximised and we will all be able to hear this profound music. Will Wallis

2.3.2000  London Opens up new discussions/ debates about time and multiple combinations. Mariana Misiunas

17.2.2000  New Jersey, USA This project interests me greatly. It is using music as a form of expressing time and space, not just clocks and calendars, and the possibilities of existing in such a state are vast and exciting. I am looking forward to a listening post here in North America, as well as a post on the internet. An epic idea brought to life; something I will tell my children and grandchidren to continue to explore and listen. Bravo! David Hollinghurst

8.2.2000  Toronto While I'm curious to hear the composition as well, I like the idea of it being location-specific, of having to travel to see it. Physical presence is underrated in this age. Awaiting a North American listening post! Eli Mcilveen

4.2.2000  Surrey Institute A wonderful, rich and enduring experience which will certainly manifest itself in the students' work during the eyars ahead. An educational experience, thankfully not confined to those who can pay! A learning expeirence for non-students as well. Matthew Smith

26.1.2000  u.s.a. As a fan of Jem Finer's work over the years, I am thrilled to discover "Longplayer". When and where will you bring it to America? Brian O'carroll

10.1.2000  London College of Music and Media Truly superb. I came down on saturday and was transformed. I hope you get a live internet link working so that I can tune in during working hours too. Dylan Penhale Facilities Manager London College of Music and Media Dylan Penhale
