Response to "Issues with dichotomies. . ."


J.S. Bach is the most important composer of the Baroque era and possibly the most influential musical artist in history. He was not the star Handel was. He was not nearly as prolific as Telemann. He was considered the best organist around during his lifetime. His work was neither widely distributed nor highly regarded even in the years following his death. Without Felix Mendelssohn, the western world would have come to his work possibly much later.

"Thought is colored. Color is everything to thought. Thought is black, white and gray."

We need the pauses and the punctuation and all of language for a society to function. Considering a society's needs takes deliberate discourse. Conversely, without a desire to form a multi-individual coalition, without a desire to develop social constructs, there would be no need to give spaces and punctuation to cries, shouts, advances and demonstrations. Just as Walker stated in a chat, "When two people use language, they are assuming a moralethic structure," I note that language and its pauses and spaces assumes a semblance of society, while society assumes that pauses and spaces be used in working with words and meaning. Society and language develop with the progress of time, but more importantly, the increased desire to develop order, to work together, however that unfolds.

"How to REALLY Experience Sculpture" Tips from DeGordora Sculpture Park
1) Take notice of how others first respond when they look at this sculpture-whispers, gesutres, "sick" faces
2) Walk around the sculpture and look at all of its physical aspects-is it on the ground, ceiling, wall, is it tall, skinny, round, is it annoying, does it remind you of a penis
3) Look at the materials (particle board, car parts, milk cartons, crap from the artist's apartment, etc) the artist had to throw out and see how much junk they could stick together
4) Consider that this ubiquitous sculpture could be in any environment-here, there, anywhere!
5) Try to determine what excuse the artist gave for making the object-the title may or may not give you a clue
6) If others liked it and it's not too big, remember to bring it up in conversation at drinks, or recommend the piece to friends later if you are alone-now, move on from the sculpture before things get awkward

Happy Halloween!
