Re: [microsound] hamster MIDI controller

[David Powers <dpowers3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmmm, the hamster part is fine, but it seems like there could have been
much more interesting timbral, harmonic, and rhythm choices made for the
hamsters to trigger.  

I don't understand why people do something "crazy" in one area, and
then make these really timid compositional choices that doom the work to
aesthetic failure.  If the timbres are going to be Casio presets of
flute and xylophone, at least use some more exotic harmonic and rhythmic
material!
