    From DIE or DIY2 blog might shed some clues:
    Lying casually in a box in Garside sleeve designer Peter Jolly's attic space,was recently found George's abandoned follow up to "Oasis", provisionally entitled "The Jester". Having been asked by George to design a cover for it, he had sent PJ a copy of the work, who then promptly designed the insert above.
    Then Garside decided he wasn't happy with the music,and proceeded to dump the project. Leaving this sole copy to gather dust in Peter J's attic.
    Peter has kindly digitized it, and reworked/redesigned the artwork, to better represent the theme of the composition.
    I'll let Peter explain:
    "Inside the folder you'll find the original cover that I made, with a cartoon pinched from Hunt Emerson. All on green card, and a bit boring, but he liked it enough to ask me to design the covers for his subsequent tapes. Bear in mind this was before PCs, so all done on Letraset and photocopier!
    When I ripped the tape I thought that I would try to find some titles for the tracks, so I've named them all after famous historical jesters. While I was researching I found a Joker playing card that I though would make a better cover, so I've upgraded.. All ripped in 320, volume corrected and tagged."
    The music itself is your usual Garside minimal melodic synthesiser symphonies,with all those georgeous (sic) warm analogue electronics; like a bedroom Edgar Froese.
    The best album Integrated Circuit Records NEVER released!

    Not ironically this album is beautiful, I feel genuine love for this George's creation and that his art can still be appreciated in this era. I didn't know it before of course, I say this because of the feelings that this album evokes in me, its cover, its year of creation, it is something so beautiful that I feel that it is being lost little by little with the massification of AIs. Seriously, thanks for sharing this piece of music, good luck.

      Interesting. It could be in 1985, when this was recorded, the only true algorithmic synthesizer work that was in academic work and the Casio 1000P. The composer Robert Scott Pearson (goes by RS Pearson) has been using this synthesizer since 1983.
      From his website:
      There is a very interesting type of sequencer that is built on intervals. For instance, you have the digits from 1-10....1-9 are intervals between steps, and 0's are rests. You can have something like 167 steps which then repeat. The most important thing however is that this sequencer is triggered from the keyboard. I have been using this technique since 1983 and it has given me great results in composing music. I would like to bring it to the MIDI age and I'm thinking MAX/MSP is the best vehicle. I have no desire to "own" the application, although in a way this writing here is a type of copyright in case someone creates the application and charges a huge fee for it.
      I create sequences like this
      12462002424210002642864100001624
      (we'll call this the loop)
      and for each note I play on the keyboard, when the sequence
      starts, it goes in a loop and assigns the 1 to the first key pressed down, the 2 to the second, and so on. If there are 9 different intervals all used in the loop, but only 3 keys held down the program will play the octaves of the notes, so that 123 would be abc, and 456 would be a'b'c'...and so on.
      You have to isolate everything I'm talking about to get the full algorithm and why it's so interesting:
      1) the full interval pattern 1-9, and then 0 for rests, is
      looped -- this creates a living pulsing sequencer
      2) the fact that this loop is triggered by an accomplished
      or just lucky person's playing of the loop on the keyboard
      3) the fact that the interval loop will do interesting things
      if less than the number of original keys are held down that
      are in the loop (the loop becomes "intelligent").
      4) You do not have to create full 167 step sequences, and in fact,
      creating smaller ones create different contexts for new musical patterns. Small
      sequences can create different accompaniment structures that can
      change just like regular ones do (that is, I IV V type changes).
      Longer sequences tend to have complexities in them that can be
      fascinating to listen to because they develop different sub melodies.
      These sub melodies can actually change within a piece.
      For some reason, when different keys are held down different submelodies
      come out. One reason why this happens is that different notes are combined
      in what seems like different rhythms.
      The loops I create take on visual aspects or patterns.
      For instance, I would create patterns like
      135 4321 111 123 123
      135 4321 222 123 345
      135 4321 333 1357999
      This would be an example of one using no rests.
      Here is one, in which the 0's are rests
      0003
      0040050060076
      0004
      001002001002
      0020040064076
      0002
      00900200865432
      Of course, such patterns can create totally unique rhymic structures.
      And from same page, above it:
      There is no way to avoid the fact that chance adds elements of beauty and intelligence to the arts. This started being openly documented in the 1920's by Max Ernst and other Surrealists but it may have had an earlier history. Tristan Tzara showed us the cut-up around 1917, but there wasn't the rhyme and reason that Ernst gave it by using intelligence and controlled chance as a backdrop which he used his gifted artistic technique on.
      Max Ernst's asethetic theories and painting techniques did not really have much of a musical equivalent until recently. Ernst was really a theorist of chance in a different way than John Cage, because Ernst used intelligent and limited chance and then used his masterly realistic painting techniques to create realistic and figurative embellishments on structures that chance created. While I had an interest in Dada and Surrealism since my teen years, I did not aim to ape Ernst's techniques. I actually was creating in this medium mostly because my keyboard's sequencer was a totally unique one, using an algorithm that no other sequencer used.
