While in Hawaii, Denny co-founded with Don Slepian the Hawaii Electronic Music Group, which was a cooperative Electronic Music studio with regular events and performances. He also manufactured custom electronic music equipment, edited a community newspaper, co-managed a Food Cooperative and served on the boards of several community organizations. His radio show, NEW MUSIC-WHAT'S THAT? was broadcast on KTUH-FM, in Honolulu for three years.
