pretty sure that the cat she's holding is alive, but are the ones on top of the computer monitors stuffed?

soref, Monday, 22 June 2015 00:35 (nine years ago)

that would be v creepy if true!

rallizes mcguire (unregistered), Monday, 22 June 2015 00:40 (nine years ago)

according to Wendy's website:

Notable is that all the cats here at the time posed for me. That's Nago in my lap, and Pica is on the Apple RGB monitor, while you can just see Subi up on the big Z21 monitor.

This thread is really special! I thought it might be fun to start a related thread containing tracks by each of the artists pictured that are good examples of their work, or which, in the cases of, say Townsend/Dolenz/etc, highlight their use of synths such as those they are pictured with. How viable/useful/popular do you think that might be?
