‪PLOrk (Princeton Laptop Orchestra) - NJN/State of the Arts Showcase‬
http://www.njn.net … NJN Public Television - PLOrk (a rough acronym for Princeton Laptop Orchestra) is comprised of musicians whose instruments are laptop computers. PLOrk is directed by Dan Trueman and Perry Cook, professors at Princeton University with extensive careers in both musical and computer programming. State of the Arts producer Eric Schultz recorded one of PLOrks premiere performances in this 2006 story, which included works by Paul Lansky, Brad Garton, Curtis Bahn and Tomie Hahn, Dan Trueman, Scott Smallwood, Seth Cluett, Perry Cook and Ge Wang, with special guest performances by renowned tabla virtuoso Zakir Hussain, accordian legend Pauline Oliveros, and the hot percussion quartet So Percussion (who processed Hussain in real-time). Schultz also visits some of the musicians in class at Princeton University.
