Event Details
Submitted by the Event Organizer
This month at Gray Area we’re reading a mind-boggling book from the 1970s! Its author, Manford Eaton (1897-1977), remains a mysterious figure. He worked as a consultant for ORCUS (Operational Research Company, Universal Systems) in Kansas City, Missouri. His main work, “Bio-Music,” was published by Dick Higgins’s Something Else Press—an unusual fit, since Eaton had no connection to the avant-garde art scene. To say more, his views aligned with Cold War-era U.S. policy rather than challenging the militarized socio-economic order.
. . .join our book club to make a judgment of your own!
Reading: Eaton, M. L. (1974). Bio-Music. Something Else Press.
Time: 12-2 PM
Location: 2665 Mission Street, San Francisco, CA 94110
