Post The Aesthetics of Noise

I thought the people of this board might be interested in reading this essay on the aesthetic properties of noise:

Feel free to discuss it afterwards.

Cheers!

That was really great. I think the ideas about the abjection of noise elements in music was an interesting conjecture. I'm not sure I quite get the Apollonian/Dionysian idea though. Music can't be seen as musical without noise to compare against? Seems like a given to me, and I don't get how that relates to noise as music. A way to see the other side?

The piece certainly makes me wish I appreciated noise more than I do.
