Cut Cubist Paste

Space and time are malleable to the sound artist.

Things are happening there now that have already happened later here.  This is a recording,

Yes, to Fire

The absurd gesture does not exist in nature.

It is only the ego that demands satisfaction at any price, any cost.  Such a representation obtains only in forms of infantile, benighted, human failings.  Reality produces myriad sounds, yet none are absurd.

Contrasting Movements

Simplicity is development toward the opposite of what is expected.

Complexity is the result of a series of choices leading to outcomes beyond expectations altogether.

Course of Flux

In these compositions, sound waves move and are manipulated toward aesthetic ends.

These sonic events reach fruition according to diverse aspects of their natures as well as the specifics of the composer's intent.  As each outcome takes place as a complete element, and contributes to the whole in complexity as a series of interrelated phenomena, it is analogous to the idea that one never crosses the same river twice.

Spatial Perspective

Encounter and absorb real auditory information within real environments.

Turn this process, rather than those associated with musical arrangements, into an organizational prototype for composition of sound.  The result is a tangible atmosphere developing in flux as aural imagery surrounding the percipient, whether listener or composer.

Force, Application, Outcome

As to art, value is not creative impulse, but final expression and its experience.

Between these lie idea, feel, medium, method, and articulation, with their complexities.  Color, sound, shading, contrast, and stylization of elements, whether released or restrained, move always toward a final act of revealing, and this is simple.  It is total effect.

Around, Within

Neglect to listen, and sounds grow dim, sensibilities dull.

Give heed to perceptions of the surroundings, and the inner world expands.
