Quote:
"AVANT SLANT is a collage-in-sound, in which fragments of poetry, pop tunes, radio broadcasts, and Feiffer-like babble intermingle to form an aural history of "Right Now." It is also a twelve-tone: jazz concert, an electronic poem composed in several media, and the first example of what may be a radically new art form."
