I have finally recieved my copy of the book, almost a year to the day later! (I ordered away back in May 1995) I have kept the 'old' details so you can see how it was originally to be released. |

Inside cover
|
Welcome to a symphony of sensual sights and visual
vibrations.
These striking images are created with psychedelic software by prophetic rocker Todd Rundgren and pioneering tech-yogi David Levine, collectively known as oficianados of cyberdelia as Utopia Grokware, Inc. The masters of the transcendental digital mind have unleased a psychotropic storm of dazzling colors and organic forms, of auroras radiating heatwaves of noisy elemental distrotions. The dynamic here is real, and invites you the gazer to collaborate rather than spectate, to free your mind and cut loose your imagination. Maybe you'll meditate on the flow of a curve, or muse on the rythms and fazing of hues. Groove to the rifts accross your retina, and rock while you grok to the cybercosmic optics of Music for the Eye. |

Details from a year ago |
I have obtained from Celestial Arts their 'Fall 1995' catalog - it
has details of 'Music For The Eye' by Todd and David Levine.
Here's the associated advert text :-'Often called a visionary, Todd Rundgren has continually been on the cutting edge of multimedia technology through the integration of his music and art in video. 'Music For The Eye' is a scintillating collection of electronically produced imagery, combining current 'cyber-punk' form whith echoes of psychedelia. Over 100 incredible and colorful images throughout the book are coupled with the musician's words and excerpted song lyrics.' |
