The point is to find new ways of expression. These times demand new ways of expression, you can't have the same forms with nuclear weapons lying around..

Maestrazo!; yo lo vi en Portland, Oregon, con un saxo y koto; fenomenal!; este tipo toca musica para el futuro, no para derechitos conservadores que quieren flautitas ala Mozart.. esta es la nueva musica!

It is so hard to know why realy good players like him change the music and after the time,years,playing experimental sounds.

I find it interesting that the arguments about this sound noise music stuff (whatever you want to label it) never talk about the freedom to just do what you want. If you don't find this video inspiring , watch something else. Why feel the need to knock it? Fred Frith is a wonder and the sound he makes is always provocative, creative, and worth hearing. Maybe you just don't like improvised noise music sound whatever this is.

sounds very good
if you want melody, there's still plenty of music on this planet.. (not to mention: have you tried it?)

maybe before posting about music you have absolutely no reference for you should research the fellow instead of posting reactionary fodder. mr frith has a consumate understanding of melody and is also a celebrated composer. hes choosing to do these things for a reason. and this is NOT easy to do.
