Focusing stringently on electro-acoustic composition since the early '70s, Stone's licenced workings experience been performed in the U.S. (under such auspices as the National Endowment for the Arts and the LA Museum of Modern Art), as well as in Canada, Europe, South America, Australia, and, about ofttimes, Japan, where he's collaborated with dance companies and composed for celluloid, picture, radio distribute, and multimedia installment.
