The audio and video are distributed on the project's channels and via participating acts. It's an increasingly common model for web arts projects and, maybe, for somebody a business.

Adrian Belew, at work these days a classical reformulation of his well-received 2009 trio project e, admits that he's unsure when King Crimson will reform. “No word right now," he says of the group, led since its late 1960s inception by Robert Fripp. “We're just waiting on a word of encouragement from dear Robert."

But, try as he might with pop outfits like the Bears, Belew—bless him—has never swerved out into the mainstream. His impulses are too idiosyncratic, his guitar experiments too eccentric, his voice sometimes unearthly peculiar. There have been, no surprise, a series of missteps, false starts, things ...
