Re: What's experimental?

Try and reproduce sounds from nature, city streets, crowded hallways, feel the tempos of the sounds, break them down, many new creations there, everyday it's different but a challenge!

The next thing I write is the truth. The last thing I wrote was a lie.
 
I have been trying various things to "unlearn" and get something new going. Different tunings, different instrument (oud), new effects, I got a yahoo widget with Enos Oblique Strategies cards. I also go to the Chain Tape Collective and listen. All of these have helped some. Any other ideas to refresh a flagging creative muse?

It's hard to learn to unlearn. You have to try really hard to be
ignorant enough.

fantastic! Having spent some time with douglas hofstatder writings on strange loops and self referencial sentences this one would definitely fall into that catagory. True loopage in the syntactic/linguistic realm. 

The creten is lying and this sentence is utterly hopelessly false. Paradox, a conceptual framework for the looper.....

Unreal and Real,  live and mediatized bound together in a feedback loop of reference 

or something.....
