In Oakland, performing as The Haters, GX Jupitter-Larsen scraped a shovel against a large amplified wall clock held up by Paul Dickerson. In Oakland, a shovel was pushed against a clock. Then a couple months later, in Denver, the clock was pushed into the shovel...

June 18, 1994 at Lost Skulls Mine in the Nevada desert, The Haters unceremoniously detonated a series of explosions. Loud orange fire balls rose towards the night sky. Several from the cheering audience quickly joined in the festivity by helping to put out the resulting small brush-fires. Entitled “Orchestrated Explosions”.
The Haters 37th Anniversary Show was also the premiere of the Totimorphous Ubiety Guide (TUG). Designed & built by GX Jupitter-Larsen, this hand-held analog device requires two people to operate. While GX handled the controls, Jessica King pulled & pushed on the machine’s rigid spring. Each tug affecting the sound produced with the result being a slow pulse. There’s never any question of location with this divining rod for conclusions.
GX Jupitter-Larsen was operating his amplified balance scales, while AMK & Geoffrey Brandin played their anti-records and flexi-montages on modified turntables. If sound could have a psychical weight, it would be measured in units of noise.
A variation of the Pump-Powered Permawave which had Jessica King operating the PPP while Elden M, Jackson Wallis, and Lorenzo Abattoir provided additional sounds. GX Jupitter-Larsen did the live mix of all these. Officially, the 405th performance by The Haters.

GX Jupitter-Larsen's favorite heckler was one he encountered in San Jose on June 25 1999. An anonymous young man emerged from the audience wearing a hand-drawn t-shirt depicting, among other things, a caricature of GX. He proceed to march up and down, yelling into a funnel all the reasons he hated The Haters. After a few minutes he just walked out of the gallery without any further clarification to the matter. Well done sir...!!! Whoever you are...
On June 5 2004 in Los Angeles, an amplified tin funnel was rubbing off against a sandpaper dress being worn by Jessica King. GX Jupitter-Larsen pressed the funnel harder and harder against the dress, pushing Jessica down. Bent out of shape, when Jessica finally fell to the floor, the 14 minute performance was over.
