Reverberations from ground zero
When the sonic alien DNA hit our atmosphere and mutated and mixed with our radio waves, some people were affected to varying degrees. Some of these people were in music and film and other arts that allowed them to replicate what they were exposed to and pass it on with their own perspective and in their own way. These are but a few of the ground-zero people: Syd Barrett, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Stanley Kubrick, Roger Nichols, Neil Young, Eddie Kramer, Frank Zappa, Buck Henry, Miles Davis, Peter Fonda, Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter, Dennis Hopper, David Gilmour, John Lennon, George Clinton, Ornette Coleman, Ray Charles, Lowell George, among many others
