1. AMBIENT MUSIC amplified by hearing aids |
||
![]() |
||
| - Think about amplification. Most of the music you hear these days are via loudspeakers or headphones, thus amplified. What amplification DOES to you?
- What if some frequency range is only amplified, and the rest not? - Has the hearing aids changed your view of the environment? Instead of amplifying sounds,how about amplifying your ears? - Can you hear sounds that are not audible normally? Does it change your sense of hearing? Sense of understanding the world? |

| - What is the difference between "nothing" and "silence"?
- Can you copyright length of time? Can you copyright for example 2'25" without any happenings during the time? - John Cage foundation does have the copyright of musical piece, SILENCE. No one can make a recording without playing anything calling it SILENT piece. - Why 2 euro per CD that has 55 tracks containing nothing? Espresso at cafes in Helsinki is 2euro20 - 50 cents. My CD is cheaper than Espresso. |

3. DIGITAL MUSIC on paper |
||
![]() |
||
| - What is written on CD? Digital information? What is it? Isn't it supposed to be music/sound? Can I "see" it and imagine the sounds?
- How are they written? Who/What understands it? Based on what system? Who made the system? |

4. SHOOT THE BUTTERFLIES |
||
![]() |
||
| - Do butterflies make sound? Why not? They are moving wings.. Can we hear it? Probably with hearing aids?
- Too weak sound for us to hear. We should make sound and let butterfly hear our sounds. How about gun shooting? - How about shooting butterflies and try to listen to the sound when it explores. - Is it easy to kill butterflies? At least not the real ones. |
