some people call her a sound artist. you can make your own judgement...

i think shes more of a video performance act myself.

i've heard strange things about momus, namely that he likes to fuck underage asian chicks. i think i might have read it in the NME. don't know if it's true, but i never heard a story about momus suing the NME for libel.

Momus isn't generally known as an installation sound sculpture artist. Toilet & Bowels is in love with noumenal, that's why he's talking so much rubbish. End of the story.

i'm the only person who speaks the truth (apart from noumenal on this occaision) you have all just been confused by lies & bullshit

So what is the truth, then?

that sound sculpture is a rubbish, toop should be ignored, and momus is a racist paedo

Ok. The truth has spoken.

that doesn't shock me at all.
but then again i could care less who he's fucking.

You are mistaken.
This falls under the category of "checking my email" artist.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Savage Clone again.

Michael Stipe with dreads?????

ok, as an example what if one were to use no music at all and just used say, the sound of footsteps, then made a system to route the walking of those footsteps through 32 outut channels in three rooms. the sound effects have to be edited very tightly and the software to program the walking path in any possible direction has to be programmed perfectly. this is not music, this is an installation, this involves sound and there is an element of the sculptural with the skill required to achieve such an aural sensation. this is not just footsteps either, there is breathing and a heartbeat recorded in an anechoic chamber which moves with the footspteps. sound design is a better term to use because the sound system has to be designed to carry all the outputs correctly through the transport busses, but then there is the conumdrum of the editing and construction element of the piece itself, and this still is not music, there is no musical instrument used, only some originally recorded sound effects and a well set up pa system..........

This is the sort of thing that kinda makes me want to say: well, so what? Especially coming from the NME, who are such a bunch of conformist whores that it makes my brain ache just thinking about that waste of paper.

Toilet & Bowels hears things in his head.

I can only think of Momus as an overly-clever pop musician who writes songs about his penis.

That still says little about sound sculpture.

sarramkrop - I just get things thrown at my head. Such is life. Anyroad - anyone here got love for Alvin Lucier's stuff? I heard "Bird And Person Dyning" a few weeks back for the first time ever, which is fucking amazing.
