youtube.comWow! Thanks for posting this.
Stanley Jordan is one of my favorite guitarists. I had no idea about his his ties to computer music, but according to Wikipedia he worked with Paul Lansky at Princeton. This in turn led me to stumble upon this two-part podcast hosted at Princeton Engineering featuring Jordan:

This is part of a larger series called "Composers and Computers" -- https://engineering.princeton.edu/series/composers-computers...
The video I posted is an excerpt for this over 2 hour video.(1) It is an amazing view into the mindset of a musical genius. He is extremely good at explaining how he thinks and how he explores the world of music. There is some audio issue with the video, but it is worth watching.
