Re: [microsound] good flavor means good taste!

well, all i'm really saying is that i don't believe there needs to be a
hierarchy.  i believe that the technical aspects of the creative process
can be, & sometimes are, incorporated into the artistic intentions.  there
is definatley a particular aesthetic than can be cultivated within the use
of particular technology, or any instrument for that matter.
