this is the most ridiculous interview ive ever read concerning the legitimacy for technology and art. then trying to use the avant-garde art movement in relation to music that all follows tonal hierarchy and standardized formats of rhythm and sound? why bother?

art doesnt appear for arts sake, sorry to say. use all the Nietzsche quotes you want, “Art is the proper task of life”.

heres the clincher:
"We are saved by technology. I mean, our music would not be able to progress without the help of digital recording technology."

this proves right there that your "art" isnt spontaneous since it is mediated by technology that comes from intense divsion of labor, the butchering of nature and is backed by a ridiculous industry that needs it to be recorded, archived, commodified and codified in order to have any value.

not impressed.
