To do in LA this weekend: Scottworks, celebrating visionary composer, inventor and musician Raymond Scott

Cory Councill writes, "Musician, inventor, and visionary Raymond Scott (1908-1994) (previously) will be feted on September 8 at the Colony Theatre in Burbank, CA. As influential today as he ever has been, Scott's musical and technological achievements have become more widely known over the past 20 years."

"ScottWorks is presented by Reckless Night Music, Raymond Scott's family, to coincide with what would have been his 110th birthday. The festival will include a daytime symposium on topics that range from Scott's 1930s jazz compositions to his 1960s electronic music inventions. There will be presentations, panels, gallery displays, and interactive exhibits during the day, followed by a concert at night featuring live performances to celebrate Scott's multi-dimensional music."
