Notes on the back cover:

"E=MC2. Music programmed as burst of energy. Energy coded numerically to micro-computers. Recorded by digital process and edited by computer. Energy is once again reproduced as music. Without distortion and noise. Approaching pure sound.
E=MC2 is a revolutionary human + computer collaboration. Live performance involves 25 computerized synthesizers. 4 computerized pianos. 3 micro-composers. Drums and electronic percussion. Vocals. Instruments are synch-locked to digital reference tone or external clock which acts as electronic conductor's baton. Ultimately, digital technology and human creativity merge in live concert.
E=MC2 is finally a complicated way of comprehending energy... simply. Understanding ultra-scientific language of digital process is... unnecessary. The future can best be understood with the ear and felt with the body. After all is said: we speak of music."

Comes with an printed inner sleeve.
