Re: Looping philosophy



Great. I do have access to an inter-library loan service. On the other side of the world so...might cause me some hassle but if thats the only road I'll check it out. Thanx for the extra info. Any further research been done into the looping nature of perception?
Been exploring the concepts of self-reference and the feedback loop nature of the world as related to an anthropologist investigating technology as a phenomenon in music/society etc...thin thread connecting it to live-looping but such is academia.
Anyway..looking forward to reading your work.

Thanks to my work, I can tell you that this thesis was published as part of an M.Mus. in 1997 by the Univ. of South Florida.
 
It's not listed with the usual disseration providers (ProQuest & UMI), though, as not all universities submit Master's thesis to these outfits.
 
Unfortunately, there's no easy copy available; if you've got an access to a university Inter-Library Loan dept., you might be able to loan a copy.

I found a very old thread in the archives and someone posted who was
exploring music perceptions and was possibly doing a PHD asking the
question "Why do we loop"

His masters thesis was entitled "A Connection Between
Schenkerian Analysis and Godel's Theorem: The Urlinie as Formally
Undecidable." I am fascinated by musical perception, and this notion of
'why we Loop" is no less intriguing.

Ive had a look around and cant find the thesis and the email address is outdated

anyone know where I might find a copy of the thesis (I'm hoping
perhaps the author is still a list member)

Any other research anyone knows about along these lines would be most helpfull?
