Another fantastic comp

I must say I have enjoyed fully every comp I have been fortunate enough to be included. So much of a good comp is about the person who selects the music, and puts the tracks in a pleasing order. This comp is no exception. It is just FANTASTIC!

Ordering details are on the Delirious Insomniac Blog

The Delirious Insomniac Freeform Radio Show has haunted the airwaves of WLUW into the wee hours of dreary Monday Nights since 2008. Host Arvo Fingers uses his lengthy experience as a sleepless madman to wield surrealistic songs and sounds into a slithering swath for 4 hours a week. Presently, "Delirious Insomniac" is also syndicated on RadioKL.Hr in Croatia, with occasional interviews, virtual guest installations, ghost hosts, and radio art. On September 9th, 2011, Arvo Fingers and WLUW will be celebrating the 4th Anniversary of the Delirious Insomniac Freeform Radio Show as well as the release of the first volume of "Delirious Music For Delirious People", a compilation featuring Jarboe, Controlled Bleeding, Zola Jesus, Boyd Rice and Friends, Gary Wilson, BeNe GeSSeRiT, Big City Orchestra, Hans Grusel's Krankenkabinet, and others.

At this time, less than 150 copies of the digipaks are available and not spoken for. The pro CDRs will stay in print unless someone happens to want to work with me on a double LP.

Evoluion Meeting Video Contest

As part of the first ever Evolution Meeting Video Contest (organized by NESCent) Meditation on Odonata was submitted.


Meditation on Odonata from Irene Moon on Vimeo.



Created with help (and specimens) from the North Carolina State Insect Museum (insectmuseum.org). An informative but strange introduction to the order Odonata. Video created using AfterEffects software, NCSU Insect Museum specimens, and footage from the Sandin Image Processor located at Alfred University. Meditation on Odonata is important for a few reasons personally as we work on digitizing our Odonate collection…discovering all kinds of cool dragonflies that are found in North Carolina as well as georeferencing these specimens. Could this be one way to discover how the landscape has changed from urbanization since dragonflies are typically found and collected around water?

Salamander Auk

Live version of Salamander Auk from the Auk Theater. Matthew Minter and Irene Moon are the Auks. Matt created the masks and the artwork for the overhead projector. Irene did the music. The plot was created by all the auks. Recorded during the 2005 tour with Mudboy and Wizzards.
