26. Rolywholyover: A Composition For Museum By John Cage Rolywholyover at the Guggenheim museum in SoHo is a collection of items relevant to the life and work of john cage. The exhibition space has been divided http://hypertextbook.com/eworld/rolywholyover.shtml

Rolywholyover A Composition for Museum by John Cage E-World Fair Use Encouraged 19 July 1994 Table of Contents Introduction What I Understand About John Cage What I Understand About Rolywholyover The Concept Map of This Paper ... External Links Introduction Rolywholyover at the Guggenheim museum in SoHo is a collection of items relevant to the life and work of John Cage. The exhibition space has been divided into four sections: the first gallery containing items selected at random from New York museums, chess tables, and the cabinets of musical scores and (Cage's?) books; the small gallery containing two-dimensional works by Cage (scores and paintings) with a "permanent" arrangement; the performance space; and the long gallery containing randomly selected artworks (mostly two dimensional) repositioned daily according to the chance-derived score Rolywholyover, the interactive computer terminal, and the Plexiglas flat files of Cage ephemera. When people think of John Cage there are usually two things that immediately come to mind formal chance operations and "silence". In this paper I will analyze the different components of the galleries (except the performance space) paying attention to the way they reflect upon these themes. What I Understand About John Cage Every well-intended message is the perfect representation of an idea in the mind of its sender. What is received is something entirely different. The best that can be hoped for is that the concept in the mind of the receiver is accurate to the original concept within limits acceptable to the sender. The received message is never equal to the sent message. The received message is a mixture elements of the intended message modified through the processes of encoding, transduction, and decoding combined with the noise of the channel. This mutated message has a life of its own and if we assume an intent to transmit an identical copy of a concept is beyond the control of the sender. Cage avoided this dilemma altogether by intentionally sending metamessages. "This message and its noise is about this message and its noise." Noise and message are to remain connected. The receiver is not to separate the two not that there ever was any choice in the first place.

A John Cage Compendium Paul van Emmerik In collaboration with Herbert Henck and Andr‡s Wilheim © 2003-2008 Paul van Emmerik Last update January 16, 2008 John Cage (1912-1992) has been one of the major figures in avant garde music and arts for several decades. He pursued a multifaceted career as a composer, performer, lecturer, author, and visual artist. Throughout his career Cage has performed and lectured all over the world. This resulted in an immense number of writings about him; even many of CageÕs own writings are published around the world. The vast accumulation of manuscripts, letters, and general materials relating to John Cage place him among the most comprehensively documented composers of the twentieth century. The aim of this site is to offer access to information on CageÕs life and work. It provides several entries to serve this purpose: a chronology of CageÕs life, divided into two parts, and (the latter part including several posthumously relevant entries); catalogues of music text , and art by Cage; a bibliography, divided into five parts:

a light- and soundscape as musical manifesto In 1987, Heinz-Klaus Metzger and Reiner Rieh m invited John Cage to write an opera that was intended to be an "irreversible negation of the opera as such". In 1987, Europera 1 & 2 premiered in the Frankfurter Opera. The following year Yvar Mikhashoff contacted John Cage in view of a version for the Almeida Festival in London, where Europera 4 & 5 premiered in 1990. In 1991, the cycle was completed with Europera 5, executed in the same year during the North American New Music Festival in Buffalo. Five operas, amounting to 4 hours and 55 minutes - a lot longer than the meanwhile all to o famous 4' 33" from 1952. Forty years after this first bomb under music, in 1992, between the second and the third of five performances in the garden of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, John Cage died. What was meant to be the swansong of opera, became the swansong of John Cage - and not only in the literal sense, as will become apparent below. Let us examine in how far we are dealing here with an '"irreversible Negation der Oper an sich'.

31. FZMw - Ovens: The Sound Collector – The Prepared Piano Of John Cage FZMw Ovens The Sound collector – The Prepared Piano of john cage. http://www.fzmw.de/2003/2003_4.htm

FZMw Jg. 6 (2003) S. 53-64 The Sound collector – The Prepared Piano of John Cage by Tim Ovens HTML-Schnellansicht PDF-Format ABSTRACT In my lecture I would like to follow the way - John Cage's way through the world of sounds, the way to the prepared piano and beyond. I want to show the determination with which Cage ever more and more extended his sound collection, his musical cosmos. Of course, the line of this development is not as even as I describe it here. There are jumps and overlaps, which I do not mention in my lecture, in order to clarify things a little. So please excuse my simplifications in the description of John Cage as a sound collector. 'My favourite music is the music I haven't heard yet.' During his whole life Cage was on the search for new sounds. Doing so, he did show an impressive inventiveness in his way of composing. An inventiveness he possibly inherited from his father John Milton Cage. 'My father was an inventor. He was able to find solutions for problems of various kinds, in the fields of electrical engineering, medicine, submarine travel, seeing through fog, and travel in space without the use of fuel. He told me if someone says "can’t" that shows you what to do. Maybe this is – I dare to say this – a typical American pragmatism, which John Cage will show later again and again.

John Cage's "I have nothing to say / and I am saying it / and that is poetry / as I needed it" John Cage John Cage 's most famous musical composition is called It consists of the pianist going to the piano, and not hitting any keys for four minutes and thirty-three seconds. (He uses a stopwatch to time this.) In other words, the entire piece consists of silences silences of different lengths, they say. On the one hand, as a musical piece, leaves almost no room for the pianist's interpretation: as long as he watches the stopwatch, he can't play it too fast or too slow; he can't hit the wrong keys; he can't play it too loud, or too melodramatically, or too subduedly. On the other hand, what you hear when you listen to is more a matter of chance than with any other piece of music nothing of what you hear is anything the composer wrote.

Writings through Finnegans Wake Check as well: Nam June Paik John Cage «The first performance of John Cage's 4'33" created a scandal. Written in 1952, it is Cage's most notorious composition, his so-called ‹silent piece›. The piece consists of four minutes and thirty-three seconds in which the performer plays nothing. At the premiere some listeners were unaware that they had heard anything at all. It was first performed by the young pianist David Tudor at Woodstock, New York, on August 29, 1952, for an audience supporting the Benefit Artists Welfare Fund – an audience that supported contemporary art. To Cage, silence had to be redefined if the concept was to remain viable. He recognized that there was no objective dichotomy between sound and silence, but only between the intent of hearing and that of diverting one's attention to sounds. "The essential meaning of silence is the giving up of intention," he said. 7 This idea marks the most important turning point in his compositional philosophy. He redefined silence as simply the absence of intended sounds, or the turning off of our awareness.»3

K'an (Corn) / 7 Zots ( Bat It is better to make a piece of music than to perform one, better to perform one than to listen to one, better to listen to one than to misuse it as a means of distraction, entertainment , or acquisitiuon of "culture." John Cage (1912-92), U.S. composer. "Forerunners of Modern Music; At Random," in Tiger's Eye (New York, March 1949; repr. in Silence, 1961). "There is no such thing as empty space or empty time . There is always something to hear or something to see. In fact, try as we might to make a silence, we cannot. For certain engineering purposes, it is desirable to have as silent a situation as possible. Such a room is called an anechoic chamber, its walls made of special materials, a room without echoes. I entered one at Harvard University... and heard two sounds, one a high and one a low. When I described them to the engineer in charge, he informed me that the high one was my nervous system and the low one was my blood circulation." John Cage was part of the topic of discussion by Brian Eno at Art Center College of Design re: generative music 10/02/97 by Maya Deren Waveforms: A musician sits at a piano. For 4 minutes and 33 seconds he does not play a note. Occasionally he turns the pages, as this song has several "movements."

new releases new on epitonic epicenter editor's blog ... community John Cage New Albion Records Pythagoras Galileo Galilei Charles Darwin Albert Einstein , and John Cage . Each of these men transformed their respective fields, and consequently the world, through their utterly revolutionary thoughts and creations. Cage is widely considered the most influential and controversial American experimental composer of the 20th century, and his body of work reflects Gira Sarabhai's notion that "the purpose of music is to sober and quiet the mind, thus making it susceptible to divine influences." Cage dismantled virtually every conventional means of thinking about music, from the serialist method of composition and consumption to a highly effective blurring of the lines between musical intent and sound itself. The success and permanence of Cage's work lies largely in his ability to effectively present his revolutionary musical thinking in his compositions. Perhaps the most well-known example of this is . A performance of involves the performer sitting at her instrument for four minutes and thirty-three seconds without playing a single note.
