Ratliff talks about how notes mean so much and yet they mean nothing at all. I understand that. I want notes to mean more, how can they not mean more. They have such beauty and charm how can it just be a sound. We are "listening to, responding to absences," as the audience but in all the lactating single repetitive sounds what is it to repeat? is it real music or merely ripple in time. That is what it is to Ratliff just a note in the background of life.]]> 2017-10-23 04:07:03 UTC https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199439113 98samrey05068 https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199441066 It was a good song just too repetitive and simple yet very gripping.]]> 2017-10-23 04:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199441066 98samrey05068 https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199441931 The beginning of this song is very repetitive using the same beat to sing "It don't mean a thing" over and over. Yet the notes have no meaning, just a feeling riding in your gut with every loop.]]> 2017-10-23 04:31:46 UTC https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199441931 98samrey05068 https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199442231 "It draws you inside the the performer's instrument or respiratory system," (Ratliff Pg. 63).]]> 2017-10-23 04:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/98samrey05068/1uq32qfn4s0f/wish/199442231
