“ | Art, at its best, is a reflection of the "core of the present" filtered through the subject of the artist. But beyond that, "timeless" art has the ability to conceive a vision for the future which reaches beyond the snapshot of the moment. Very early on Cage said goodbye to the traditional classical, dramatic, and semantic developmental structures that are still typical for post-serial new music in favor of an art which has nature as its model (star maps, streets, gardens, etc). Instead of linear and narrative compositions, multidimensional networks and proliferations of independent voices with mutual and indirect influences emerge. These are non-hierarchical, self-organizing, chaotic systems which can be presented and developed differently with each performance, but nevertheless have a general mood and structure - each performance is a snapshot of a possible state of the piece. It is like an intersection of streets which is always the same, but each time you pass it, it is different. - Ulrich Krieger, liner notes | ” |
