Bethany Ryker:

Stochastic Hit Parade, the 3 hour version started on Tuesday mornings in September 2001, moved to Sunday nights in 2002 and went until about 2008. It was a great way to get my start at FMU! A440 was born out of that and has run intermittently from 2012 to current.

Do often think of the relation of how the developments of Musics parallel the same for Visual Arts - especially of course by all the Modernisms. Not only for my own perceptions - but how the people who say they don't 'get' Jazz or Avant-garde sounds are probly the same people who say they don't 'get' Abstraction or dADa ~ Surrealism - Experssionism, Pop - what have you. Don't know how that holds up in the lab - but I appreciate this in any event...
Avatar 1:05pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...yet not hard to see how Klee himself was into Bach for instance - in terms of elemental & almost mathematical / geometric joys ...Bach of course relatable to almost everyone (obviously Creatives) in all fields in all times...

I agree with all of that - and then there's also the total curve breaker: personal likes and dislikes that fall outside of logic and reason. I get curious in those moments.

StringOFperils:

People/artists, are often way ahead of the 'average Joe', in twin arenas of technique and theoretical understanding; often exploring the 'limits' of an establish artistic tradition, to find out perhaps where music isn't music, or to codify the threshold of acceptability as a means to point out something else about a society and the 'art' it manifests. What are its tastes? And furthermore, why?
  1:21pm
Little Danny:

Fascinating. Love hearing about these esoteric systems…
Avatar 1:26pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

SOP - exactly. I have sort of anthropological concepts of it all - that Artists go back to those Shamans in caves painting bulls on the wall & banging frame drums in weird costumes - probly with some very interesting plants involved. & our present society is kind of the technical exploded & more complicated view of this exponentially smaller & original population of humans. Shaman is a weird job - in that one has to be far enuff out from the tribe to have something unique in perspectives to offer it - yet must be the consummate communicator - & towards the greatest benefit of all as well. Re this - McKenna's Archaic Revival & the like...
Avatar 1:29pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...& if the Arts are for providing whatever Balance is required to the rest of the Culture - then what really is the required Medicine ? Pure Idealism probly - but maybe even Nietzsche would grant us @ least that - @ least there.

Shaman is a weird job indeed. And not for everybody. It's where science and art come from in the first place, and then the initial comforts delivered become entrenched, and then the shaman is subject to the big clampdown. Unless of course it's Banksy, who is wisely elusive.

Thinking also of a commentary made about Calder : That whereas many Moderns used the Circus to represent sinister things - Calder's interpretation was celebratory & playful. Klee may present something like what is seen under a microscope - but very much something like that too I think. Chagall & Ernst maybe a bit of that? ...An element of the Naïve or Primitive or Fauve I guess...

Bethany, are you at all interested in Luigi Russolo? He was an Italian Futurist painter and musician who wrote the Futurist manifesto on music The Art of Noise. He invented the Intonarumori, a noise/music instrument that sounded like an air raid siren. There is a very interesting book about him Luigi Russolo, Futurist: Noise, Visual Arts, and Occult by Luciano Chessa. Seems that he fits the theme of your show.
