- @c_a_harebell What accent? in reply to c_a_harebell #
- Live tweet event w/ museum scientists! RT: @DenverMuseumNS: Do you have a question for our Snowmass scientists? Submit them using #iceagedig #
- @disquiet Thanks for the tweet! in reply to disquiet #
- @c_a_harebell Really? I just remember her sounding like a valley girl. Maybe I was the drunk one. in reply to c_a_harebell #
- @c_a_harebell The early stuff is actually pretty similar in some way to her noise work. in reply to c_a_harebell #

- @DawnPutney Did you know that the Denver affiliate of Komen for the Cure did not withdraw its grant to PP? http://t.co/XO41iJ1K in reply to DawnPutney #
- Fifteen bucks for a CD… come on, isn't that pricing out of date? #
- @grahamdunning Congrats on yr netlabelversary! Right now I'm on musical hiatus while I work on a sound art exhibition: http://t.co/k7XBdgKR in reply to grahamdunning #
- @hecanjog That's why I embrace the term "experimental". Not all experiments are successes-you have to accept failure as part of the process in reply to hecanjog #
- @grahamdunning Yes, it's been slightly unhappy not having a larger institution with a larger budget behind me to pay for shipping. in reply to grahamdunning #
- @grahamdunning Still, hope you'll consider maybe a smaller entry, I've got a large space to fill! 🙂 in reply to grahamdunning #
- Supposedly we're about to be hit with one of the 10 worst snowstorms in history. Being from Colorado, I'll believe that shit when I see it. #
- @hecanjog My least favorite minimalist. in reply to hecanjog #
- @Le_Berger The idea of compositional control has been a key issue in experimental music since the Schaeffer / Cage dichotomy. in reply to Le_Berger #
- Sound art call for entries – deadline for proposals Feb 6 http://t.co/k7XBdgKR #
- @Le_Berger Didn't mean to be pompous, just that the role of composer is a subject for much discourse. #indeterminacy #acousmatics in reply to Le_Berger #
- @Le_Berger Personally, I think it's completely appropriate to dwell inhabit an in-between state. in reply to Le_Berger #
- @Le_Berger I encourage you to look into Pierre Schaeffer's ideas & contrast them w/ John Cage's – completely fascinating the differences. in reply to Le_Berger #
- @Le_Berger I agree, I'd often rather read Cage or listen to him speak than listen to his music. #
- @hecanjog Hm. Good question. I've looked up the usual suspects (Wikipedia et al) & they're pretty unsatisfying. in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog Schaeffer's approach in a nutsell is that sound ought to be divorced from its context, listened to as pure sound-(#1 of ??) in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog He called this approach "acousmatics" a term based on Pythagoras' akousmatikoi. Pythagoras taught his students from behind (#2of?? in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog …from behind a curtain so that the facial expressions & body language wouldn't taint the pure information of his lesson. (#3of?? in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog Context therefore could be viewed in Schaefferian terms as "noise" interfering with the signal of compositional intent. (#4of??) in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog In its modern use, any music which has a message or point to it is counter to Schaefferian acousmatics due to its context. in reply to hecanjog #
- @Le_Berger I agree with that entirely. That agrees with my philosophy, and yet I'm drawn to many Schaefferian composers. in reply to Le_Berger #
- @hecanjog Lopez is a *perfect* example of a purist modern Schaefferian composer. Bernhard Günter is another. in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog It's obvious from my body of work that I'm a conceptual composer, but I do utilize the pure sound approach at times. in reply to hecanjog #
- @Le_Berger Absolutely. I am comfortable with many approaches. in reply to Le_Berger #
- @hecanjog Günter is really interested in space, probably growing out of his fascination w/ Feldman. in reply to hecanjog #
- @Le_Berger Yes, it's good to know these ideas and where you ground yourself in the field of work. in reply to Le_Berger #
- @hecanjog I've always used sound in materialist terms, but I'm not sure I conceptualize sound as material. in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog No, I'm actually behind on my listening of his work. I ought to catch up since Trente Oiseaux is a free netlabel now! in reply to hecanjog #
- @hecanjog It's funny, the acousmatic composers often have the most interesting music-I'd rather listen to Pierre Schaeffer any day over Cage in reply to hecanjog #
- That wasn't such a bad snowstorm. Off to work I go. #
- If you haven't yet checked out January's release on Vuzh Music, now would be a great time! http://t.co/RsEasOO1 The Euphoric Hum – Flow #
- Oh Crap! RT @DawnPutney Someone kicked in window @ ArtLab last night-Hey mean person the karma train is headed your way http://t.co/MePN6Xgn #
- @cinchel Absolutely! I'm not expecting any imminent entries, so you're free to have your way with those sounds-I'm looking FWD to hearing it in reply to cinchel #
