Meredith Monk - 7/8

[shimsham35]

There's abstract art and then there's just shit. This is just retarded shit.

[JazzHawk3]

@armswim10 No!

[nds101122]

5:25 ahh! They're all having seizures! Quickly! Retrieve medical help!!

[reedkutcher]

How is this inspiring?

[joshuagoymer]

i think meredith is absolutely fantastic, breaking the boundaries before her time, i definitely think this is one aspect that inspired bjork when it comes to her medulla album :)

[SinNanna]

I'd like to see anyone bashing this actually attempt at manipulating their voices well enough to sing some of Monk's pieces.

[apanhadordearrepios]

inspiring 

[armswim10]

YES!

[aiava]

Trying to communicate with alliens has never been easier after this documentary! thanks and credits to the video provider!

[letsphilosophize]

Art is about expression. It can be anything. So, just shut up. (See I just pulled a masterpiece)

[nicolad11]

lol!!!

[SidewalkFrequencies]

even though I'm white .when I see something like this, I have to wonder "What's Wrong With White People?" 

[CigaretteSmokingMann]

@SidewalkFrequencies oh, when i see a comment like this i have to wonder "what's wrong with people musical education?!"

[japps]

Life in repetition

[slightlyodd999]

[spnavigate]

turtle dreams

[dudestube]

[fanniemaeflippers]

[physicalbreakdown]

..................is there anything on the internet i wont masturbate to?

[spastik90]

breathtaking

[CigaretteSmokingMann]

why meredith's work always comment fuckin idiots and people who didn't know anything about her artwork. it makes me feel sick!

[graco79]

yea this is pretty...um out of the ordinary...

is this some kind of new found genre from 1980s that didnt last...I c y

[salvadorr88]

1segway... this gives you hope? The only significance this has is making me laugh while it pisses me off. Oh... and it kills a lot of my hope.

I agree with the guy who said it's scary. I think when people get creatively lazy they try to go as far out of the box as they can. Let's not be so fuckin' lazy and let's compose pieces that respect music and my ears so that our future generations may find reason to respect us. Now give me a thumbs down because you hate what I've just typed. SR

[robitenor]

Salvador, music its not only Britney or Metallica my dear, there is a wide spectrum like you know...black yellow brown people...i bet you dont like anything that is just not like you. Art is not meant to please your LAZY taste that only conforms with McDonalds.

[Tazwegian]

@robitenor do you honestly believe that because you like, or pretend to like, this absolute nonsense that a deranged and slightly retarded child could have cobbled together, that it somehow makes you musical taste superior to others?

[honeydukes123]

@Tazwegian no, but certainly the child´s to yours :DDDD

[joshuagoymer]

@Tazwegian well i have been watching these documentaries, yes some of the vocals sound hysterical at points, but in the earlier documentaries the harmonies are moving and enchanting and resonate with me, children may could do this, but music is instinctive and human, so why couldn't a child make music that meant something or said something.

[iROCKThis4life]

this is scary..

[1segway]

Ms. Monk gives me hope.

[RGKLEIN21]

The organ music is so reminiscent of the Doors--I am expecting to hear any minute "Come on baby light my fire!"

But seriously folks, I find this music and performance very exciting!

[garbanzo55]

genial genial, aki se comprueba q no somos parientes del chimpanses, sino del cienpies? estoy confundido!

[astartarte]

realmente interesante, quisiera poder ver más material sobre la obra de meredith monk, ojala pudieramos suscitar mayores acercamientos. Saludos desde Mérida-Venezuela, desde donde iniciamos este acercamiento a las nuevas y no tan nuevas tendencias experimentales y actuales de arte, insertas en la contemporaneidad, en la pos-modernidad, transmodernidad... o como se deba denominar este último período o époco historica en la que vivimos.
