It's certainly true that I have (had) no idea how much credit, or not, anyone was taking for what was being displayed. However, I can't help but wonder what the point of the show is if these works are not being presented as creations of the person(s) putting on the show. In other words, is this person really just exhibiting Cycling '74 products for their own sake, taking no credit themselves? Seems unlikely. Tom: thanks for the link. I'll read the essay when I get a chance. As for what I make of the C'74/Ableton partnership, well, um, nothing, really. I haven't paid much attention at all to C'74's activities since I left the company, and that was years ago now. Domi: thanks for the translation.

However, as a fan of M. Night Shyamalan, you should stick it out for the "surprise twist ending" :) Speaking of Cycling '74, what do you make of their "strategic partnership" with Ableton (and the fact that it's been well over a year since the announcement and no further details have been released)?

The chico talking to camera doesn't really claim anything for the contributors to the exhibit.
