Groundbreaking electronic composer Richard Maxfield was born in Seattle on February 2, 1927.
Maxfield then continued adding and dropping passages from each piece, often creating what he dubbed inter-masters -- i.e., multiple tape reels played simultaneously to generate a new master recording.
Maxfield's visibility in the New York art underground was raised considerably by his standing as a member of the Fluxus movement, with performances at various downtown performance spaces, including appearances at the famous loft concert series mounted by LaMonte Young at Yoko Ono's loft during 1960 and 1961.

 deseretnews.com | Indecent wages   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-17)
Maxfield argues that problems like Davies' rise in part from limited technical training offered in Utah's high schools, with a fixation by public schools on sending students to universities to obtain four-year baccalaureate degrees.
And while a college education will open the door to higher-paying jobs — the median hourly wage of a college graduate is $22.60, or roughly $45,000 a year, in Utah — many degree-holders are outside of the labor force and employed in jobs not requiring that much education.
Part of the answer to eliminating Utah's working poor lies in competency-based education, where students must demonstrate what they learn, Maxfield said, and in doubling the amount of technical training and beginning that training during high school.

Although I'm fairly hip to the history of electronic and experimental music, I'll also be the first to admit that my knowledge doesn't extend very far beyond some of the big names.

It's 4 pieces by him that make up the first half of the disc, and judging by them, it's a shame that he wasn't able to continue on, as they're easily some of the most interesting pieces I've heard from the time period.

Richard Maxfield had just come from New York, where he had taken over John Cage's classes at the New School for Social Research for two years.
He was an American pioneer in "musique concrete," the postwar French music composed of natural and altered sounds collaged on tape, and he was already famous among the underground for such pieces as "Cough Music" and "Fermentation Music", tape pieces manipulating natural sounds with great imagination.
Already, though, further research into the new technology of magnetic tape, stimulated by Richard Maxfield's early work, was preparing these young composers for a new direction.

But these reissues from Advance Recordings LPs (credit is due to Advance's guardian Gino Robair) offer a splendid introduction to Richard Maxfield, a proto-minimalist cult figure dead following a fall from a window at the age of 42.
Particularly appealing are Maxfield's 1963 Bacchanale, a wild "concrete" collage mixing folk material with Greenwich Village jazz and underwater clarinet, and the 1961 Piano Concert for David Tudor, another collage in which the avant-garde pianist plays only on the strings, scrapes them with chains, spins gyroscopes on them, and showers them with tiddly-wink disks.
Maxfield's fuzzy warble tones and Budd's 1970 Buchla Box improvisations remind us how early minimalism, which astonished us less than 30 years ago, already sounds nostalgic.
