Hot off the heels of his recent exhibition “The Organ Factory Suite” (May/2006),
John Barlett reveals how computers have become an integral component to his
current creations.  We trace back to some of his earlier works that employ
more traditional methods and hear how this predominantly self taught artist
learnt the tricks of the trade.  All this comes after a long stint of being
a traveling salesman, but one day he decided to just pack it all in.
