“Rather than protecting music as a sublimely meaningless activity that has managed to escape social signification, I insist on treating it as a medium that participates in social formation by influencing the ways we perceive our feelings, our bodies, our desires, our very subjectivities - even if it does so surreptitiously, without most of us knowning how. It is too important a cultural force to be shrouded by mystified notions of Romantic transcendence.” IfsWayDoeImportantFeelingsBodyDesireForceSocialInfluenceActivityNotionMediumsPerceiveMeaninglessTranscendenceFormationSubjectivity Author:Susan McClary
“The formation in geological time of the human body by the laws of physics (or any other laws of similar nature), starting from a random distribution of elementary particles and the field is as unlikely as the separation of the atmosphere into its components. The complexity of the living things has to be present within the material, from which they are derived, or in the laws, governing their formation.” HumansBodyLawFieldsMaterialsStartingPhysicsSeparationAtmosphereComplexityDistributionComponentsUnlikelyHuman BodyParticlesLiving ThingsGoverningFormationLaws Of PhysicsGeological Time Author:Kurt Gödel
