John Cage - Water Walk

We had that very same blender (Waring) when I was growing up.

John Cage was at the cutting edge then, along with abstract expressionist visual artists.

This isn't music. Tipsy has more talent than John Cage. There is NO talent. There is NO creativity. He uses his creativity almost parallel to a Serial Killer. Parallel in that there is no positive outcome of the creativity. There is no way any sane person can seriously say John Cage is A) a Musician and B) an Artist. This is a man that was born to show the world that originality is not always good.

You haven't listened to much of Cage. Also, if its not music, that's fine. Relax.

this piece is gorgeous. it makes me sad to hear the audience laugh the way they do in this video at such a work of sonic art. but thats generally what you have to expect out of the public

Don't be silly. It's all about context. HE IS IN A TV GAME SHOW.

Eso no es romanticismo, ni se le acerca, será música programática, intentará transmitir una idea... Pero no puede estar más lejos, es modernista, contemporánea, música del siglo XX...
Algo que realmente me molestó mucho en este video es la gente riéndose... El pobre tipo está seriamente interpretando su música y la gente se le ríe. Puede resultar extraño, puede no coincidir con el concepto de música de muchos, pero es de verdad una falta de respeto reirse así.

lo escribí sarcásticamente, por si no entendiste el chiste....

Beck's grandfather Al Hansen(Fluxus artist) was a colleague of John's(also a Fluxus artist), is it any wonder Beck is the creative entity he is with an eclectic pedigree as such. Shame all the best Cage footage has been yanked from YT...

Many thanks for posting this gem... I adore this man and his audaciously beautiful legacy

what's the opposite ?
