Jeremy did a lot of good work at Dalkey Archive, among other places – I think his tone is maybe not coming across in print?

You couldn't actually write in Bangla on a Mac until incredibly late – maybe 2009 is when Apple added support? Bizarre that it's the sixth-most-spoken language in the world and they could just ignore it.

What other acoustic Autechre covers are out there? I remember the Francesco Tristano version of "Overand" a long time ago: www.discogs.com/master/28140... – and Alarm Will Sound did "Cfern": www.discogs.com/master/36616... (and maybe did more live?)

I've come around! I think those lines are three trochees and then a dactyl, as much fun as it is to read them like Hiawatha.

Yeah, I can't really make that last line ("The shallop flitteth silken-sail'd") fit into trochaic tetrameter, stressing "The" just feels wrong. And it doesn't feel like the meter should change in the middle of a sentence!

I'm not 100% convinced I'm right, because he's changing up the meter right after those lines, and maybe those lines are ending on dactyls?

Weird that he claims that word is untranslatable – isn't what he's describing what the Japanese called "benshi"? Pretty sure there have been a fair number of recreations of this recently: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benshi
