Continuing my series of very embarrassing posts about life on the internet. A couple of years ago at a party it was getting really, really late. And then it started to get early. And then there was this piano. We had played the piano in different constellations for several hours when we just couldn't take it any more. Something had to be done. Something really bad, void of rhythm, feeling and melody. There should be nothing. We tried to make sounds that sounded well.. Wrong.

And then there was this guy filming the whole thing. I don't even remember if we were aware of that at the time. However; a couple of days afterwards he asked us if we were OK with it being uploaded to Facebook. And after some careless consideration I figured; why not?

So the guy puts it on youtube. And he adds the following description:

"This is contemporary aleatoric music (see Werner Meyer-Eppler) with elements of the genre of the catholicon, exemplified by the 15th century Missa cuiusvis toni of Johannes Ockeghem, and also influenced by Segerstamian sonostochasticism.

If you are not already familiar with finnish composer Leif Segerstam´s non-pulastive (aka free pulse) symphonies, for better understanding of this work you are encouraged to first listen to Segerstam´s 212:th symphony recorded by the Gothenburg Symphonic Orchestra."

What do you even say to that? Well. There was this one guy who actually responded with:

"No ideas, No melody Noting interesting!"

To wich our makeshift manager, producent and promotor responds:

"Thanks! The absence of overt melody lies at the very heart of sonostochasticism,
so there is absence of melody, just as it should be,
but do you think there is also an absence of mood?"

That other guys answer to that is short but precise:

"Yes!!!"

Now; what really puts me off is that this peace of whatever, it actually has 835 viewings and exactly one up vote and one down vote. I don't pretend to understand what that's all about. But. It's very.. Odd.

"Yes!!!﻿"

"Yes!!!"
