Re: Great speech video on "Sound"



--> sounds like a Grateful Dead concert!

Yes, I think so. Here's an interesting extreme example: It might even
occur that the art in improvisational music has less to do with what
sounds are actually produced as with the process of the musicians
trying to find "something to say" (i.e. looking for common ground). In
this case *the artist's intention* - to go with that definition of art
- is to put themselves into unknown territory and just deal with that
situation as best as they can. An audience can even enjoy following
this process if the musicians are unsuccessful in finding a common
ground expression (goofing around in confusion until the piece is
over).
