Re: [microsound] blocks of text





Sound artists work with longer blocks of time=
, true, but in most of the cases they do so knowing that the expectator wil=
l only listen to a short period of his work.

I think the discussion was focussed on the creation side of things
i.e. the lengths of time certain artists deals with
not the spectator

how many people actually stay for an entire DJ set? not many



right! that was the point of what i said...

from the side of the creation of things, the composer should have in mind the context where his work will be performed. an artist who creates a max patch for a sound installation which never stops, for example, does this knowing that the composition must allow the listener to get in and out of it at any moment.

in that sense, these compositional values are a whole different thing that those of a filmmaker.
different sculpting ways...


hah I think I'm moving the discussion to some other point with this, but i find it extremely interesting.
