Funny, I expected longer before this thread reappeared.  Er, yeah, it's been discussed before, most recently in March (check the archives at http://lists.uchicago.edu/pipermail/ua/2001-March/subject.html ) but various times before.

I've got nothing new to add since the last time, except for possibly using Raymond Scott for music for the House of Renunciation.  You know the music that was used in the Looney Tunes whenever they enterd a factory?  That was Raymond Scott, as was a bunch of similar music.  Then one day, he went and bought some synthesizers, helped create a theremin without the neat 'touchless' aspect, and started writing really weird, really early electronic music.  Thus, music for the House.  Or not, depending on your musical tastes (also, you could use his early stuff in association with an avatar of the Fool, who passes through the house...)

Mr. teapot
watched far, far too many looney tunes as a child
