Let me make two "novel" suggestions as to where to find great EM books: 1)
the hippest (or at least the biggest) of used bookstores near you; 2) Check
out a book at your local library (preferably at a University or even a JC,
where they aren't as likely to sell off the old books as your neighborhood
library). I've found many good things at both as well as the once a month
library book/record sale -- very sad to see these useful books on their way
to being pulped. It's worth a try.
But really the best way to get interesting patches is to share ideas with
others and try unorthodox (but not stupid -- like outputs to outputs) things:
i.e., "why can't I use an audio processor for processing CVs, or vice versa?"
I'm wondering if Mr. Strange (you'd have to go into EM or psychology with a
name like that, eh?) actually gave Mr. Probe (insert your own joke here)
permission to make/sell copies of his book.
