early adoption for the Ptolemaic Terrascope were the Flaming Lips.
I'd already written a piece eulogising them for Bucketfull of Brains
magazine back in 1987, and when the Terrascope was launched the following

Mills, who I'd first got to know through working at the Bucketfull, was one
of the first regular feature writers "employed" at the Terrascope (though in

arranged the following interview, which took place on the eve of their first
ever UK gig. The following interview was first published in Ptolemaic
Terrascope issue 4 in May 1990 and has remained unseen ever since.... (Phil
