Avante Garde or Oh My God?


Have you ever been to an art event that you really did not like, but felt as if you had to react a certain way to cover your true feelings? Well, that was me and mine at the yearly event hosted by the University of Virginia School of Computer Music, Technosonics. The projects were very interesting, but it was paramount to mild torture listening to the end result for more than thirty seconds. I'm sure there are people that are dedicated to this type of work, but I would rather be unsophisticated and wait for the watered down version. Still, I have no regrets. I am happy to live in a town where I can experience new things. And I realize that, as an artist, I am bound to provoke similar unpleasant reactions in others with my work. Oh, well.
