No, not in 1997, when this was produced. They were 3 stereo CDs intended to
be started as the same time and slip out of sync (roughly 3 minutes each
pass) so that it would take 27 years to play the complete piece. It was
part of a sculptural installation in Burlington, Vermont, in 1997 and in
Prague in 1999. Got the listener's mind totally trashed after about 8 hours
of it.

Nope. Since you can't post through an anonymizer, that wouldn't have been
possible. Darn. :) :) :)
