I was about to make a smart aleck comment about "Art as Music" but then I remembered that you already elegantly explained that using set notation.  Speaking of which, does PA have some sort of LaTeX compatibility that I'm unaware of? ------------- when i was a kid a doller was worth ten dollers - now a doller couldnt even buy you fifty cents |

I just don't think I can consider art as art. There is something that just doesn't seem artistic about art. It doesn't speak to me like art does, you catch my drift? ------------- Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been.

I copied this reply from the Music as Art thread:
I think the remark about the figurative frame is interesting, because painting frames often have an accepted aspect ratio, which is usually close to the golden ratio. The idea of frames can be extended to music where tonality, harmonic structure, timbre, rhythm, and other characteristics act as boundaries of a style. For example, most of us would recognize a previously unheard piece of music as being jazz, baroque, Celtic, flamenco, opera etc based on previous exposure to the corresponding stylistic frames of reference. Of course, art is not all about following established rules and conventions, but also about bending and breaking them to make a statement. That reminded me of Dadaism and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Found_object" rel="nofollow - found objects / https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Readymades_of_Marcel_Duchamp" rel="nofollow - readymades , where the artist selects existing objects and declares them to be art, which may or may not entail modifying said objects. Is something Art merely by virtue of the fact that someone claims it is? Is John Cage's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4%E2%80%B233%E2%80%B3" rel="nofollow - 4'33'' Art? Is this thread Art? Is Art Garfunkel Art? |

^^ Actually 4'33 is a spiritual expression of a certain Buddhist concept, it isn't a piece of music but it is an expression of something that is powerful enough to affect as music does or more. Because Cage was a composer, which is a facet of art; I'd lean towards artistic expression for 4'33, yes ------------- Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been.

I think art is the ultimate expression of art. I wish more artists would understand this -------------  https://rateyourmusic.com/~siLLy_puPPy |
