A black body is an object that absorbs all electromagnetic radiation that falls onto it. No radiation passes through it and none is reflected, yet in classical physics, it can theoretically radiate any possible wavelength of energy. Wikipedia.

Dog As Master Black Body originally released on cassette in 1985, C37
Black
Body was
the third cassette tape release of my solo project Dog As Master. I recorded
this album with a Fostex X-15 four-track cassette recorder. This is one
of the best and one of my favorite Dog As Master albums, and is highly
recommended as a good starting place for getting acquainted with DAM.
One 36 minute tape collage, meticulously laid out in overlapping layers
of shrill synthesizer trills and patterns, cascades of tape cut-ups, voice
choruses, and noise blasts from a Commodore 64 data cassette. This took
me about six months to create. Black Body is noisy and chaotic, yet highly
listenable, with a thrilling and high energy electronic sound. Symphonic
grandeur, positive anger, with a touch of Residents whimsy. Released
on the Cause And Effect label. To
