A long shot indeed, but last time I checked, Ray Lynch was based not too far from San Francisco. (Tragically, I believe his home/studio burned down in a wildfire some years ago - but I think there was a crowdfunding effort to help him rebuild.) I've no idea whether he receives visitors or even still works with music, but if I were a young electronic musician on a pilgrimage to the bay area, I'd certainly want to see if Ray has anything cooking, because if he does, it would probably be too special to miss. Other than that, maybe: - https://music.stanford.edu/events/upcoming-events Might be of interest while checking out CCRMA. Although mostly online events at the moment, due to COVID. - N.B. Possibly of interest to LAU subscribers generally: https://music.stanford.edu/events/quarantine-sessions-distributed-electroacoustic-network-improvisation-33 - https://computerhistory.org - https://www.noisebridge.net - https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/California - https://www.meetup.com/barcmut/ Good luck to your student! -- A: When it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
