@windstorm1000 Oh PLEASE! The man is insane! What barriers!? Maybe you are as crazy as him.

someone asked here what's the difference between Cage doing nothing and another person doing nothing while composing. well, if you had listened to this video instead going to get a bowel of cereal, you would have heard that though his music is by chance, it isn't an abondment of that chance.

John Cage is an American original. And whether you like his 'music' or not you my fellow Americans, you should atleast appreciate the listening barriors he broke! So lets support his genius and his compositions that deserve to be heard--or rather experienced-- more often in the concert hall. No more negative comments please.

what a trip!!

For those who understand the word 'music' to mean the more rigid 'musical tradition', think of it like representational art vs abstract art. They each have their own place.

Like any other artist, you have to put him into the context of his time. He started composing these kinds of pieces poswtwar, when you had movements like Abstract Expressionism and Existentialist philosophy becoming popular. Like Abstract Expressionism, Cage's works had themes of perceived chance and the unconscious. It says a lot about the state of the world at the time. We would no more dismiss Jackson Pollack's paintings as random dribblings of paint than Cage's 'music' as a bunch of noise.

John Cage did for music what the number zero did for mathematics: Nothing and Everything.

Look at the smile Cage has when he's sitting with his Zen teacher. It always amazes me how brilliant people are happiest when learning even more!
