This conjures a picture of a few friends sitting with this playing and inevitably someone would exhale and then mutter, "yeah, the f*&#!+ pigs" and then pass the herb on to the next person.

i floated at phill's a bit... my ex a close friend... my first encounter with niblock was while working at snug harbor in staten island, the director there gave me his number to get a consult on video equipment. i got his answering machine on which the message said to leave a joke. i forget if i left a joke but it left an impression

Even if the Zoom call was recorded, I doubt it would be seachable online, unless Jasper shared it in public space like Niblock's website or Vimeo or etc. If you have the invite to the call you could see if he made it available via Zoom.
