Creative Brains: Music, Art and Emotion 

Skye M I’ve always wondered why people thought Rihanna was so great, especially in that “Umbrella” (annoying) song. She’s cute and pretty and all but sounds like what you describe... dronelike. She snorts cocaine so.

I was in a block due to my CPTSD, but I think I’m coming out of it! How is your art going?

@@ratswithshivs I have been doing a lot of learning and healing lately. The painting will be next. 🖌️🎨

@@fauna3989 that’s amazing. Keep healing, keep growing ❤️

Per definition, yes.

Aye A :0)

+SaBi NuKi That was a conscious stylistic shift over time as opposed to an underlying neurological disorder.

to my opinion, Picasso has not any mental disorder, he was very ambitious and has some narsistical personality features. which was very common among famous artists.

+DHewson Piano ... of course it failed, but that is old news, and serialist where the first ones to realise it and acknowledge it. But please, when you listen to Murail, Harvey, Grisey and Lachenmann or even Sciarrino, do not dare calling that "12 tone serialism" because it is not, and I hope I am not giving you a lesson here. Serialism was needed, but Stockhausen, one of the main figures of serialism, did not only do integral serialism music, he did many other things, he almost did everything. Boulez wrote some of the more important and advanced integral serialism pieces, but did not pursue on this way after having achieved those works. He was as well one of the more important figures of that approach, but he was maybe the first one to recognise the failure in one of his theory books. The only one of those figures that percisted, probably more due to ideological reasons, was Luigi Nono. But yes, serialism could only fail, and it was Xenakis that pointed the failure to come before it came. Yes, Xenakis was never into serialism... The reason it failed is because it does not take in account the phenomena of resonance, this is not the case of course, of spectral music, which is also old news, yet it still has a lot to offer. Nonetheless, there are a few work of pre-serialism and even tough serialism that still very interesting experiences, from a performative point of view, I am thinking about Webern and of course Stockhausen's Klavierstucke. And you can try as well some of the post-serialism hyper written works by Ferneyhough... quite a challenge for both the performer and the listener... cheers !
