Hi folks, just as the list splutters into life again here's an article I wrote recently for the Geometer online magazine:- http://geometer.org.uk/ Bear in mind...
Actually i quite remember the sound of the Mona Lisa more than the actual painting which was so dark and behind so much reflected glass, it was quite hard to...
thanks for the responses Groove Guru and giancarlo. I'd really appreciate if you could expand on your comments a little Groove Guru - I think of my piece as...
I'm a bit surprised that people are so down on this. What makes you uncomfortable Giancarlo? At first blush, it doesn't seem to me to be intrinsically more or...
Hi Giancarlo, Greg, and all, I've been meaning to post for a while but buried under the final rewrite of this PhD commentary...what a load of, well-let's just...

hi greg, well I have seen that it raised enough words. So it deserves more attention. Personally I have nothing at all against simple "pure" (whatever the word...
I like how the notion of this project tweaks the notion of the masterwork by suggesting that we as artists, as listeners, as "art lovers" and/or culture...
First off thanks to everyone for listening and taking the time to comment. It’s been quite a surprise! Other people have expressed views much better than I...
james, I have just read your article on geometer. A couple of public opinions from me: easily to say that it is well written and its "general" approach is well...
Hi Giancarlo thanks for taking the time to read and comment on the article. It would have been interesting to commission several artists working with sound to...
I suspect that some of this surfaced recently in the Mona Lisa discussion, at least the bit that made me uncomfortable was the unquestioning acceptance >of...
... overcoming the "cocktail party effect" and learning to listen to crowds and other alleged "ambiances" polyphonically. When a mass gathering becomes a...
Hi Greg well, the title of the thread was Works of the Masters and I'm uncomfortable with the unquestioning acceptance of 'Masters'. Who says they are masters...
Hi james I guess I find the 'unquestioning' component a little strange. The idea that 'masterpieces' are socially constructed ie their designation is both...
I too like doing this and I wonder why it is enjoyable/rewarding. It is quite effortful to inhibit something as deeply learned as sound-to-language. Perhaps...
Fair enough, but I'm surprised at your surprise that others haven't noticed what you call a fairly commonplace idea. If I talk about these things outside of a...

we have these. you can see them on MTV. Anyway for many artists 'fame' might "distract' them from what they are doing. The model of "success" is eschewed...
okay - my experience does differ on that. I've found that lots of people are pretty aware of the social construction of meaning. It's part of the school...
hi greg, well my early discomfort was with the idea of Masters being taken as commonplaces. I am absolutely not denying their role in the history of Western...
hi james, I take a separate step into the same topic. Yes I agree with you about putting a stance from the very beginning of things and first of all ask why...
