1980 Mar 28 "Totentanz"- Program

1980 May 17 Fri. noon on the steps of the City Hall Rotunda SF Examiner: "Lesbian Chorus worked on Warner Jepson's six-minute score in the City Hall Rotunda and the sounds startled some municipal employees." "It began with loud hissing, a few giggles and heavy puffing like an old steam engine. This was followed by squeals and screeches that would not have disgraced a brood of dying cats, and an assortment of ha-has, ho-hos, hee-hees ending in a loud burst of seemingly maniacal laughter that startled the City Hall workers. ... Yesterday's weird laugh-in was a preview of Monday's Pacific Ha [conceived and produced by Judy Auda], when 20 million West Coasters are supposed to rise from their slumbers and let loose with a bedlam of guffaws. Thirty radio stations, spearheaded by San Francisco's KGO, will help laughers get in the mood by broadcasting a laugh tape also composed by Jepson, an...electronic and acoustical music expert who's working on a New York musical called "Humpty D" when he's not laughing up a storm..."
a score of laugh sounds performed by Lesbian choir of about 25

1980 May 19 Mon. 7:45 am on radio "Pacific Ha" by Judy Auda a 1 min. tape collage of laughter for broadcast at 7:45 am on KGO

1982 Mar 3,4,5,6 "TOTENTANZ" Grace Cathedral SF Chronicle, Hewell Tircuit: "No small part of the effect is due to Jepson's chilling but unobtrusive score. The thing is a masterful accomplishment, and one of the few durable electronic scores of the age. It belongs right up there with Stockhausen's "Gesang der Juenglinge."

1985 Jun. 21-30 9th San Francisco International Lesbian and Gay Film Festival, Castro Theater "A major avant garde success in the early 1970's this film by Steven Arnold...features the legendary...drag group "The Cockettes. We follow two naive young men in their journey through an elaborate bordello comprised of a strange combination of cloisters and chambers, jungle grottos and ivied forests, banquet halls and temples--all of it located in an indefinable area of time and space. Bizarre and erotic, LUMINOUS PROCURESS was greeted with rave reviews by even mainstream critics when it was released in 1971. ...The Village Voice called it "...a west coast Satyricon..." while the LA Times said it is a "strangely compelling, highly imaginative work of unabashed hedonism." Steven Arnold died of AIDS in 1995
