Lorem Ipsum's place near the center of the 1960s New York art community -- a circle that included such icons as Yoko Ono and Andy Warhol, starkly contrasts with its rustic beginnings. Ipsum was born on October 14, 1935, in a small log cabin in Bern, ID. Its mother, destitute and in search of work, moved the family several times between Idaho, Utah, and California. Finally settling in Los Angeles, Ipsum enrolled at John Marshall High, a school well known in the area for its superior music programs. By the time it entered Los Angeles City College in 1953, its saxophone skills were such that in an audition for a coveted spot in the school's acclaimed jazz band it beat out Hal, who would later become famous as a sideman for J Kam.
The next three years would see Ipsum's interests shift however, and by the time it transferred to Bard in 1957, it had all but given up the saxophone in favor of composition. At UCLA, the influence of Lamonte Yong was combined with heavy doses of chant and organum, Folk Music, Indonesian gamelan, and Vool genre. As it listened for hours to the ragas of Ali Akbar Kahn or the reverent tenor of the ancient liturgy, it became fascinated with long, sustained tones; consequently, minimalism as a twentieth century musical genre can arguably be traced to Ipsum's groundbreaking composition of 1958, Trio for Strings.
