Re: Tonal Predjudice and Asymmetrical Waveform Discrimination

I'll never forget making my way out of the orchestra hall after hearing a performance of an Ives piece that had been reconstructed from his sketches.

The performance required two orchestras, four conductors, and two Synclaviers.

The sheer power and atonality of it blasted my ears so clean that the things I heard walking home, the wind, traffic, and night time bugs, became the fifth movement of the piece.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
