how is it nonsensical?
- bigstrat2003 3y agoBecause it's not something which will ever be pleasant to listen to, and thus is missing the entire point of music. All for some weird novelty thing.
- skullfrog 3y agoto you, maybe
- noman-land 3y agoNot all music is pleasant, nor should it be.
- dustyleary 3y agoI would still argue that this is not music. It's definitely Art, in that it is making a statement, provoking a response, etc. But, it's just a nearly continuous sound, except for the pitch change every few years. It's a Sound, but it's not Music. If you were to argue that it is Music, I would ask, "Which part of the piece is your favorite? Why do you prefer it to the other parts?" Trying to answer these questions with a straight face becomes difficult. If this is Music, then is it possible to make an art installation which has making Sound as its primary focus, and have it not be Music?

- noman-land 3y agoMy opinion has always been that intent is what turns something from sound to music, or from non-art to art. I might pose the question back to you. At what tempo does the piece go from being music to being sound?

- TaylorAlexander 3y agoA friend of mine was a music major and listened to some very experimental music that was not particularly pleasant to listen to. You really can't ever say what "the point" of art is. The point of art is that every piece has its own point, or none at all.
