Thank you, if you hadn't posted it, I would have. I was literally just watching this again for the umpteenth time yesterday. One of my favorite videos of all time.
Yeah I saw some videos of her trying to dress up as a man in some presentation video about an electronic instrument and it just felt so out of place. She's definitely a woman.
This seems nuts but it's true. She had privately transitioned but hadn't yet come out in 1970, and had to make some public appearances wearing awkward fake sideburns (and maybe a short-haired wig?) to pose as a man. More info here on Pink News.
I’ve known about this woman for years and been a Tron fan since I wore out the VHS when I was six, and I never realized they were connected.
Yep. Made the Tron score sound like a video arcade, hence the ubiquitous discordances. This piece titled The Light Sailer features the Tron Scherzo (What I think of the Tron Theme, though now the love theme is called that).
Also Lynn Conway, the important engineer behind Mead Conway VLSI
Check out her album Sonic Seasonings sometime. Really amazing atmospheric stuff!
That shit's like buttah!
Those are some epic credits
