Throw them all into a well, if they cannot tell - INTRO

What’s up, directors? Grab your knives!
It’s time to take all all of the lives
Of the people who cannot see
The somnolent genius of Tarkovsky

Come on authors, grab your guns!
It’s time to murder everyone
Who has never heard of Apollinaire
Send them all to hell, it’s only fair

Cast them all into the flames
If they don’t know any names
Of the principles of Arte Povera
Or are unfamiliar with le serpent mascara
That’s right, mascara snake!

Come on painters, alive or dead!
Give all the cretins a boot to the head
If they don’t extoll convincingly
Tempered Elan era Kandinsky

Throw them all into a well
If they cannot tell
An Arto Parv feast of repitition
From a Schoenberg 12 tone composition

Come on artists, the day is here!
And your mission is very clear
Put an end to the bourgeoisie
And death to everyone who’s never heard of me

Goodmorning! Won't you be my neighbor? Welcome to my PAWC blog. I am deciding to create one of these dumb-founding sites in an attempt to organize and re-relate the material presented in this class in "non-music major" ways. This goes out to all those Ed. Theatre kids out there, to the phenomenological envelope and the ecclectic movement...of sound. We may not know the Schoenberg 12 tone composition, and we most likely will not be able to "name that tune" in class, and we DO get credit for dancing to drum beats (lets see you try it. African dance is hard work compared to sitting around listening to music all day. I jest. kinda. Being a clown mime is not as easy as it sounds! Respeck!...we should also get credit for Jetman...) This blog is not an attempt at extreme intelligent insightfulness. This is not my place for essays nor do I expect anything I say here to be published. This will be treated as a BLOG, in the most playful meaning of the word. So lets get started shall we!
