behind the masks of total choice
I am not a genuine pamphleteerI have nothing to say. I have nothing to write… If I had something to say, I would be the first to say it loudly, outrageously, and articulately… Behind the masks of total choice different forms of the same alienation confront each other all of them built on real contradictions, [...]
the world being nothing other than pseudo-enjoyment
That I can’t say love each other. Or stop and look at things. Or don’t concentrate wealth. Everything I have to say has been said a million times better, plus it’s a cliché. Plus…and here’s the kicker-it doesn’t change anything. The inevitability of history hits me like a mallet over the head. There is no [...]
stockhausen served imperialism
in the spirit of cornelius cardew’s 1974 polemic, stockhausen serves imperialism, on his former teacher, nemesis, and the newly dead (in the true spirit of the title of this blog) karlheinz stockhausen , 1928-2007, i put forward david ocker’s more very personal mixed manifesto on “new music” 1. I lost my faith in new music [...]
tranquil center of misery

could the correct words make a difference in someone's life?
i wonder: if written in the correct order, could the correct words make a difference in someone’s life? what hides under the spectacular oppositions is a unity of misery. retrace our steps, act 2text, jenny bitner and guy debord Be the first to like. Like Unlike
do you know you will burn in hell if you don't change your ways?
I am intrigued by the belief that a pamphlet could change a life. I remember those given to me with the images of a man burning amid fiery flames, and inside: “Change your life. Do you know you will burn in hell if you don’t change your ways?” what hides under the spectacular oppositions is [...]

I am trying to devise the perfect pamphlet, a pamphlet that if given to enough people could change the world.

its a show week, final exams and student teacher fun at csuf so not much time for blogging. btw… we just got a nice plug in whitehot magazine for sunday’s show at dangerous curve in downtown la . i especially like the log-line. Tired of going to the opera house? Tired of the concert hall [...]
monday morning quarterback
d.i.e. had a pretty good show last wed night in which we premiered david toub’s piece this piece intentionally left blank. i thought it was a very effective composition and pretty good first performance. enjoy the mp3 mp3.
this performance represented the best of social networking and was made possible by david having a well designed website with scores and mp3′s. he also is very smart by having some pieces in open c score that are easily adapted to any instrumentation (most pbe music is written this way) which is the point of the diverse instrument ensemble.
anyway ,it was a challenging but fun piece to play and great example of the exchange of ideas by making your music public. i look forward to playing more of music like this and encourage others to follow.
newmusicland
daniel wolf cannily points the limitations and travails about having a blog and dialogue it spawns. Personally, I think that Newmusicland is a microeconomy (or a series of microeconomies within a microeconomy) without much real at stake. Sure, there are prizes to win and teaching gigs to hand out, but in the end, it’s a [...]
