Re: [microsound] the clueless leading the blind (ego)

or maybe I'm off my rocker and my ego is still colouring my opinions. let
me know what you think.

>>i think what attracted me to much of this (microsound, etc) music was that at least superficially, it appeared egoless. and some of the emails and links people have posted here that have others decrying barely audible pops and hisses, indicate that ego is very much a factor in how people perceive music. 

then again, i may be misinterpreting your comment...im thinking of ego from a structural viewpoint (the self, the part that is in touch with external reality) and not necessarily conceit or self-importance to the point of exclusion. though the two can be related.

so perhaps people are picking up on the fact that much of this music (equipment and process aside) appears not to be ego driven, which is certainly disconcerting (and arousing emotions of anger, confusion, fear?) to many coming from a more traditional background. like music critics/writers.
