LESS IS MORE
(57)
...like my dear ol' friend Ludwig Mies van der Rohe would say. It’s not my intention to lecture some history of art, at least not as a mogger and not now.Minimalism marked mostly architecture and design, but was more effective with visual arts and music, in the way their purpose and philosophy were spread in its pure form – simplicity of means and aversion to ornamental detail. If you pay attention you'll notice that this concept is very alike between music and visual ar... MORE

Give the man a piano and he'll give you an orgasm.
I love how this song touches the deepest me of me...

O teclado, como um piano, tecla de letras, tecla de sons. As letras que me unem à memória do existir, os sons que trazem a energia para continuar a existência. I'd preffer being where I was than seing with my own eyes the much we're distant from each other. It was clear to me when we were growing up and now still.

Philip Glass's Solo Piano album has always struck me as unlike much of his other work. Although Glass utilises the familiar technique of repetitive themes, the fine shades of difference here seem less imposing than many of his orchestral works, creating a meditative masterpiece. 'Metamorphosis' was written in 1988 and takes its title from a play based on Kafka's short story. Numbers three and four are from Glass's incidental music to the play. Numbers one and two use... MORE

But this time it's ALL about him ! Philip Glass' modern classical scores have been featured in many films, but now the artist himself will hit the big screen. Koch Lorber Films has acquired U.S. theatrical and home video rights to Scott Hicks' documentary "Glass: A Portrait of Philip in Twelve Parts." The feature includes interviews with Martin Scorsese, Errol Morris, Chuck Close, and Christopher Hampton in its exploration of Glass' life and work. "Glass" was shot in... MORE

10.00 PMI was sitting on a chair with A-3 tag on the right arm (although my ticket said explicitly A-1), and since I was alone up there in the berth I had the liberty to choose the seat facing the stage. _“Hey! It’s time! Where the hell is Glass?”_, some said. 10.10 PMDespite of being up high on the third balcony, I saw Mr. Glass gliding in all dressed in black, as he usually does. He sat by the piano, introduced himself and like he was giving us the piano lesson of our ... MORE

...Well, Flip - Flop, You Don't Stop...I'm listening to the POTUS lie like a cheap rug on NPR; for the first time, dude's admitting that the US "is not winning the war in Iraq" (but he still can't bring himself to utter the "L" word)...where's a staged aircraft carrier when you really need one, yo? Last November proved that the three card Monte approach to the immutable truth is no longer working "Things Fall Apart", as the Chinua Achebe novel goes, and nowhere is that fac... MORE

i can't think of any soundtrack to a horror(related) movie than what Philip Glass did for Candyman. and there are only a few Philip Glass deals that i like better than this. and incidentally, i don't think there's been a better American horror movie that pops into my head right away since Candyman. maybe you thought it was lame in the mid 90s, but seriously, watch it again. if you still think it sucks, i don't know what to say. you can clean my bathtub after i shoot a tubg...

Classical Music
(19)
Standing it front of my CD collection last week, when it dawned on me that I had 20+ Classical CD’s but that none of them where on my computer or Gigabeat. Now I’ll be the first to admit that I know absolutely nothing about this subject, but obviously I like this music or I wouldn’t have bought it, so why I have not transferred some of it? Well I usually have my MP3 player on shuffle and you don’t really want a 25 minute piece popping up in the middle of 3 minute tunes. (... MORE
