    Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we have.

    Re: Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we hav Very fair points... that is all... I didn't say your arguments about my thoughts were unfounded, I said your attacks on my personality were. I wrote this between 1:30 - 2:30 this morning... of course some of...

    Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we have.

    Thanks guys these are some interesting thoughts too. I'm just throwing ideas out there at the moment... and this is the sort of place where ALL sorts of ideas will come together. It's not a thesis... it's very initial thoughts... dicatated from me ranting and talking. It's a response to the...

    Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we have.

    I didn't say it was dead... I said it was dying as an artform. It's turning more and more into mass produced gunk. I know there are a lot of artists that make good music... I have 50 odd GB of music I consider good on my computer from all sorts of genres from the 1600's to the present day. But...

    Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we have.

    And why? For dictating my initial thoughts only... no attempts at clearing it up. Why D minus?

    Carnage!

    I hate to say this... but when they say they hate generic Metalcore etc etc... and then play very VERY generic thrash... they pretty much loose all the credibility they could have. A bit like Slipknot really... telling... all the record companies, sell-outs and posers to get lost. In the...

    Death of music as an artform and as a the strongest communicative language we have.

    Well I'm writing this article/essay thingy for a newspaper. Anyway, the premise is that essentially music is dying as an artform, and that the quality and growth of music, and the emotion that drives music is dissapearing. The way I think about it is this. And this is a whole lot of rambling...

    Opeth anyone?

    The Sydney gig was amazing... Perfect set I'd say :D They even played Bleak *head explodes with awesomeness. In reference to the heaviness and no melody. What do you mean there's no Melody? Just because the vocalist isn't singing a melody line doesn't mean there isn't a melody. The guitars...

    Metallica-Death Magnetic

    I'm sorry... have you listened to any other Metallica? Kirk has ALWAYS lived on top of his wah pedal. I thought it was ok... it hasn't tickled any really good spots or pushed many buttons... but my suspicions are it's one of those albums that will grow on me... alot. However, one thing that...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    I would say It's more of an accountability thing... It's not that It's a threat - you're right it's not a threat - but a high level of Church accountability. I would expect a brother in Christ to tell me stop looking at Pornography, or stop getting smashed every weekend - he would be holding me...

    Music Extension By Correspondence?

    You'd have to be do Music 2 by correspondance as well if that was the case i would say... Because it's an EXTENSION subject, that's kind of the idea. Yea, Like champo said, it's more a do it yourself subject... Takes a bit of work if you want to do well... but not anything that's not part of...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    He's read what he's written about theology... Also Katie, his threat on MP's makes sense... because an MP who votes for abortion rights is going against biblical teachings, and just the same as if a person attending Church was homosexual, or sleeping around... they would be told to stop or...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    Yes he is an amazing man, but I think the way he has dealt with all the media attention recently has been a little inappropriate... e.g. running away from the Chasers wasn't the best idea...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    Yes, but Dogs also eat their own faeces... No seriously... That's one of the interesting things though, from memory don't we know the genetic reason for most of the homosexuality in the animal kingdom? I can't remember...

    Memorising is Boring.

    Tulipa is right... Knowing your texts/events as well as your concepts, and then synthesising is the best thing... That way you can respond to a Red Herring question as well as any other. When you write essays you should be practicing writing, not memorising points, I mean if you know your...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    Fair enough... But one of the reasons kids go is because they are Gay and finding it hard to cope it what is essentially a very homosexual world... not the other way around... well at least that's the impression I get... I think I saw that doco katie... wasn't there a bit about them being...

    Another reason why god doesn't exist

    Don't worry, I'm not looking for a debate... I just want to understand... I'm glad you see what I mean by brothers in Christ... all denomination is, is a style of worship... Thanks, I'll read the Catechism at some stage after my trials... Yes faith through reason is interesting... you...
