".microsound is an unmediated mailing list oriented toward discussion
of the styles of digital and post-digital music promulgated by the
proliferation and widespread adoption of digital signal processing
(dsp) tools.
..microsound is not a "genre" mailing list, since this proliferation has
occurred largely without regard for stylistic boundary. instead,
..microsound presents itself as a forum for the discussion and
exploration of a more general "digital aesthetic" manifesting across a
wide variety of styles and disciplines -- from academic computer music
to post-industrial noise to experimental ambient and post-techno.
"
I guess one could translate style into philosophy but some of the
threads in question don't seem to ever stay on track of connecting
these philosophies to music.
Maybe I missed the point but as an example how does socialism relate to
a style of music? <- see I'm making this appropriately topical. ;-)
