I had written a profile for Robin on www.pulseradio.net years ago, but unfortunately I don't have a copy any more.
we chat about his art practice, various projects he's worked on, sonic objects, working with electronics & computers in art, and his theme using water. the interview took place on 28/10/2002.
Robin's website is http://www.otheredge.com.au
His teaching blog is at http://www.otheredge.com.au/weblogs/teaching
You can download, listen and view some of his works and educational pieces at archive.org or via his ourmedia page
There's photos and description of his 2002 sonic objects on Gail Priest's snagglepussy site as his work was part of the Unnatural Selection exhibition at the Manning Regional Gallery, Taree
(photo from snagglepussy.net)
(I'm still looking for my photos from the workshop)
here's some photos of Electrofringe / This is Not Art 2002 where Robin held a workshop / session
]]>A vital speaker, Davis has given talks at universities, media art conferences, and festivals around the world. He has taught workshops and seminars at the UC Berkeley, the California Institute of Integral Studies, the New York Open Center, and Esalen. He was one of the original minds behind Planetwork, an organization devoted to cross-fertilizaing information technology and global ecology, and continues to bring these passions to bear on the Evolver Project. He has been interviewed by CNN and the BBC, and appeared in Craig Baldwin's underground film, the SciFi media critique Specters of the Spectrum. He occasionally plays guitar in front of microphones.

bio - full:
A fan of all that is dark, twisted, and psychedelic. Cyberwlf constantly seeks out the latest and most innovative in dark psychedelic night music, always looking to take his sound to the next level and push new boundaries.
From regular party goer turn DJ/Promoter/Organiser/Radio show host, Cyberwlf has been listening to electronic music since the late 80s. Natural progression lead him to discovering Goa-trance and then later on PsyTrance as well. Being a fan of Industrial, Metal, and Alternative music, Dark Psychedelic Trance became an instant love for him, and a passion he has spent many years exploring.

Any favourite artists, influential DJs or must-have labels?:
Nabi Records, who I am the Australasian representitive for! A label which has been pushing the edges of the dark psychedelic trance genre in recent years now. Also worth mentioning is the Australian artist Melbourne, Pondscum.

How did you become interested or involved in writing music / DJing / your project?:
I actually didn't want to DJ, and had originally wanted to start an electro-industrial band. The guitar and keyboard needed to even get this started never happened, and through just being a general music fanatic, I ended up being offered and took up my own show on the Internet Radio station PulseRadio.net. This gave me the skills and understanding of track selection, flow, and later the technical

How would you describe your style of writing music / musical / artistic policy?:
One where keeping the music fresh, interesting, and challenging are key factors. Always seeking new sounds to explore, with a major orientation towards dark, twisted, and psychedelic trance music.

Want to name-drop any other people's names???:
Could mention many names, but it wouldn't change what I am about.
Could mention many names, but it wouldn't change what I am about.
What are your thoughts on the Australian music community?:
Even though it allows some underground genres room to grow, the more commercial and bland genres have become more and more popular, and it kills musical innovation, as dance music shifts more towards being pop music. Underground styles of music have had their venues pulled from under them so vendors could use the venues for more commercially viable genres. I can only hope this changes.

What are your thoughts on the internet & music / filesharing / DRM etc?:
DRM is a flawed system, it more often than not shows an ineptitude of the people who create these standards to understand the practical and legitimate uses of the technology.
Filesharing can be as good as it can be bad, underground artists can hit the big time through their music being illegally traded, but it's no good when hard working artists are constantly robbed of their earnings due to people being too tightass to spend a couple of dollars on music they obviously get a lot of value out of.

I hope to take on equally twisted/psychedelic yet uplifting morning sounds, as well as find a solid transition sound.

What are your thoughts on the Australian music community?:
Not sure about non-hip hop but the hip hop community is pretty cool. It used to get a bit feisty but generally speaking there are people you can connect with who are building with a similar vision and it just feels like Voltron pushing down barriers. It’s pretty cool to be a part of.

What are your thoughts on the internet & music / filesharing / DRM etc?:
It isn't going to go away. It just means that smart groups will find a way to use it to their advantage and explore other revenue streams that they can generate.

The quality of local hip hop is just getting better across the board. It used to be about a handful of the major cities in Australia. Now there are crews doing really good stuff all over the place. It's inspiring.
