I think this is a real trend. I'd add the "attraction" of video/computer gaming, which seems to be followed with as much zeal as we had for music. Mainstream American kids under 30 have had very little exposure to either accoustically generated music in a real space/time or of analog recordings thereof. Most of what they have heard has been digitally synthesized and computer generated. But there is always a reaction to the mainstream trends. I have noticed in the last few years a real folk music revival on the streets of New Orleans. Where the previous generation of with-it youth were all about computer and electronic music, now I see all kinds of neo-hippies playing guitars, violins, accordians, trumpets, clarinets, and washtub basses. Part of this is a response to the ongoing New Orleans brass band tradition, but I also see it as an exploration of the limitations of the computer generated hyperworld. Is this the beginning of a new counter culture in which being off the grid and self-sufficient is the highetst goal?
