Re: [microsound] Eno vs Laptop



and that the whole human body
needs to be involved in the creation of music...

this Enoishingly thread reminds me of those difficult undergrad days... long afternoon arguments with my composition teachers about the supposed demonic intentions of Coda in their writing of Finale... "yes! yes!" said I, "it is a terrible shame that we ever stopped the right godfull practice of banging the crap out of sticks and rocks to notate our little Bagatelles... do please pass the petit fours".


....and pray tell what is all this rigmarole about the immediacy of physical instruments? I know you!! I remember you chaps trying to sit in on jazz ensemble... trying to pass the most hackneyed clichés you lifted from some 'twenty minuet version of Down by the River'... you could, at the very least, do us the curtsey of not using your guitar strings as a bong tools! Good plying requires some inspiration and practice, practice, practice... humph!!
