maybe not.

The list I wrote is of important things to Cage and his musical development
[wild mushroom picking was a favorite activity, he went to this
supoosedly silent room at Harvard and was inspired (to do 4'33" and
other explorations), he used 3 coins to consult the i ching oracle to
make decisions in his music].

sorry for being so oblique, but that's the way i am.
