Theories

  • Membership may be a somewhat loose concept.
  • On the old Boards of Canada website, Kelly, PB, Amo, PIC, Crofter, Goderich, Rubene, DW, DB, Orphel, Ketchler, Deni, BoC and Hexagon Sun are credited for creating and maintaining it, but it is unknown who some of these people are and if they're in Hexagon Sun to begin with. ^[1]
• Live Recordings:
• The Warp10 bootleg was recorded by a member.
  • The somewhat constant background voice is similar in accent and intonation to that on Turquoise Hexagon Sun.
