Sad news, Henry Jacobs has passed. From Wikipedia (in 2014 Jacobs indicated
his Wikipedia entry was mostly accurate) -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Jacobs

>From a local paper in northern California (though not entirely accurate):

Re the above article, the Morrison planetarium had speakers already in a
circular configuration, they weren't "set up" by Jacobs. The details here
re Morrison, Vortex and Cage are not entirely correct.

Henry attended CVM & PFA's memorial screening for Jordan Belson at Pacific
Film Archive in 2011, and gave a few comments there about Belson and
Vortex. In early 2014 he allowed a brief interview when I visited him at
his home in northern California. Much will be written about him soon, no
doubt.

RIP, Henry
