Karlheinz Stockhausen, 1928-2007

The BBC has reported that Karlheinz Stockhausen has died in Kuerten, western Germany, on Wednesday.  While he was known as a composer, innovator, and irritator of many things, below is a picture as he was inducted as an honorary member of Coil, photographed in 2000 at Sonar in Barcelona.  When John Balance introduced himself to Karlheinz, his reaction was "Balance, all my life's work in composition has always been about 'balance.'"
