John Cage

(or Flaubert's psychotropic organ)
sentimental teleology, an attempt to track intellection back to the embryo: compositional time doesn't posit itself as a deferral, but as present enactment thereby registering a bifurcation of its occasion, achieving a static display in a cosmic "Fragmentation. We began by increasing the differences between the sounds making a klangfarbenmelodie. More and more we left openings in our space and time. What changed matters radically was the willingness to stop work altogether before the structure was complete. After that there was no longer any fixed structure: just parts in any number, superimposition, and duration. Time-sense changed. Now he says: The permeation of space with sound." Synthesis of matter and anti-matter; commitment dial.
