All the music was realized with Touché, computer-assisted keyboard instrument from Buchla & Associates—(designed collaboratively by Donald Buchla and David Rosenboom)—and Dr. Rhythm electronic percussion

Extra parts were as follows:
William Winant – temple blocks and roto toms on bareback and clavés and maracas on domestic violence.
David Rosenboom – Syrian dumbek on distant space, electronic percussion synthesized with an ARP-2500 synthesizer on talk 1, Ghanian gankoguis on talk 2, voice processing with Electro-Harmonix Memory Man and Lexicon Super Prime Time delay units, Delta labs Harmonicomputer, Eventide Harmonizer, and Buchla 200 Electronic Music Modules.
Daniel Aaron Rosenboom – baby cries on domestic violence.
All – hand clapping on "wishes.”

This project was originally recorded in 1982 in analog form at the Center for Contemporary Music Recording Studio at Mills College, Oakland, CA. It was re-mastered for digital release in 2012 in David Rosenboom’s studio in Valencia, California.
The recording was based on the original performance-art version of Daytime Viewing, which included music, text, theater, projections, fashion/costume designs, and video, created in 1979-80 and performed at the Music Gallery, Toronto; 80 Langton St., San Francisco; Kunsthalle, Basel; Festival International de Musique Électronique, Video et Computer Art, Brussels; and Macy's San Francisco as part of the J. Jasmine Review on the New Music America Festival, 1981.

Her original performance works, in collaboration with composer David Rosenboom, J. Jasmine...My New Music and Daytime Viewing, have been recorded and released on records and cassettes. Her graphics and design works have been used as covers for numerous records, CDs, books and posters in the contemporary arts.
