Notes From Ralph

The story centers on an eccentric character, the Bunny Boy, whose search for his missing brother compels him to post videos on the Internet as a "cry for help." As the story evolves, it opens up to interaction between the Bunny Boy and his audience, causing the narrative to twist and turn in odd and unpredictable ways. Spanning a gap between insanity and self realization, the loony but affable Bunny Boy soon finds himself pursuing a goal no less vital than saving the world from Armageddon.

The problem that the Moog was way out of the financial reach of most people, was tackled by other innovative synth makers. After some serious lobbying on my part, I convinced Cryptic Corporation to part with about $1200 (mid-'70's dollars at that) to purchase an all-in-one device, the ARP Odyssey. I still have it and last recorded with it in 2008.

Randy wanted to do a video series that starred him as a crazy guy. The Bunny Boy. I was writing music for a new Residents album that had no lyrical content. We did a trade. Randy wrote some lyrics for my music that related to The Bunny Boy project he was doing, and, in turn, I wrote music for his video series. I assembled an album from the better parts of the noise-fest soundtrack and called it Postcards from Patmos. Later it also played as background music as the audience arrived for our Bunny Boy show. That gave me the idea of using the “walk-in” for shows as an excuse to record more experimental and abstract albums. Counting this one, I recorded four or five albums as “walk-in” music including Dolor Generar, Life is...My Only Sunshine, and The Highway.
