This is a great thesis, exploring the Line 6 DL4

Avenue Journal, Vol 1, No 1 (2007)
Repeating the Live: Musical Repetition and the Line 6 DL4
Jeremy Morris


this Book is also interesting when one goes into the Aesthetic
implications of liv e looping, the theory which ultimatly accompany
the practical for any would be musicologist...

Liveness
Performance in a mediatized culture by Philip auslander

The whole notion of 'Liveness' is rather obscurred in live looping,
mediatised and recorded function within a performance realm where
traditonally performance "being is through its disappearence. Philip
explores the concept of liveness within a culture whose primary
reference is the artifical, the mediatised as apposed to the 'real'

And of course the seminal

Walter benjamins paper
Art in the age of mechanical reproduction

If your wanting to explore the historical shift to eventually engaging
with fragments of recorded sound in performance.

Always leaving the referencing till later, the academic prcrastinator
lurks forever, so i think illl get that section together for the next
While
