David Tudor

So, David Tudor has died. I read this in the UK daily paper The Guardian
(London, Aug 28, 96).

For myself, at least, he was a major influence. Not so much
artistically, I have never been that enamoured of the post-Fluxus/Cage
aesthetic. But he was a pioneer in the ...

interesting questions

good taste (strange combination!).

They have presented a post-linguistic and post-visual investigation
that reflects very well the state of contemporary culture and
communication.

It's very logical ...

psychological imposition

I'm thinking about identification again.

In traditional film and video, the viewer attempts [or is encouraged] to
emotionally identify with the characters they watch on the screen – usually
with the protagonist, antagonist, etc…

In real life, however, we generally don't walk around watching people,
looking for someone to be ...
