"Social Immune System was created using the field recordings I made at the Occupy LA demonstrations (October 15, 2011) in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Included are voices from the protest including John Densmore (x-drummer from the Doors), Peter Joseph (founder of the Zeitgeist movement), text from a poem by Etheridge Knight (read by Densmore), text written and read by Joseph including a quote by John McMurtry which inspired the title of this piece.
This is a stereo version of a 16-Channel piece included in the ZEPPELIN 2011 - SOUNDS IN CAUSE festival at the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona – December 9-10, 2011."
