In other words, this term singles  out people who have no access to or do not use digital technology  efficiently. Focusing on rock and roll musicians, how are they  influenced by their own levels of skill in &#8211; and engagement with &#8211; the  domain of digital technology? What do the musicians themselves say about  their current use of this technology? The project at hand investigates  the status of the digital divide among musicians. The author explores  these research questions by assembling and researching a comprehensive  bibliography, as well as by conducting exclusive interviews with several  well-known musicians, including:<br \/> Anthony Phillips (ex-Genesis),  Collin Bass (Camel), Dave Kilminster (Roger Waters), Eric Norlander,  Greg Kihn, Harald Grosskopf (ex- Klaus Schulze), Kane Roberts (ex- Alice  Cooper) Mike Howlett (ex-Gong), Suzi Quatro, Mark Kohler (Krokus),  Ashburn Millers (Orgy), Acid Mother Temple, Chaostar.<\/p>\n<p> The results of this project constitute the core material for a book with a planned release date in early 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fsl\">Vasileios Yfantis holds an MSc in Information Technology with Web  Technology from the University Of The West Of Scotland and is a PhD  candidate at the Ionian University, Department of Informatics.
