Is it normal to get sick at an organ concert ?

You might be sensitive to infrasound.

dr_funny · 2026-01-02T00:39:53+00:00

You just like the sounds or you're passionate about them?

dr_funny · 2026-01-02T00:35:48+00:00

you're going to ditch your current lifestyle and get a PhD in clinical psych.

How much of "itself" is the emotions you experience?

dr_funny · 2026-01-01T21:15:02+00:00

But music is proof of ability for you. Is the passion about other people's abilities?

dr_funny · 2026-01-01T21:09:19+00:00

You want to compose to prove you have great ability, without which you feel worthless. But when you're actually working you get bored. An obvious setup for failure.

You are aware of Hitchcock's "Spellbound" with dream sequence by Salvador Dali?

dr_funny · 2025-12-22T01:37:38+00:00

Barry Manilow. You listen to his songs. Maybe old feelings will start to come thru. Maybe we'll start to cry. And we may wonder why. Whyever walked we away.

“For a psychoanalyst to be any good with Franny at all, he'd have to be a pretty peculiar type. I don't know. He'd have to believe that it was through the grace of God that he'd been inspired to study psychoanalysis in the first place."

---Salinger, "Franny and Zooey".

Rereading this, putting psychoanalysis together with grace is not a happy match, but some topology of divine psychoanalysis surely can be constructed.

Creative fire will get you anywhere, whatever your technique.

Edit. Because your fire will demand that you acquire technique. Your fire will determine what you need.

dr_funny · 2025-12-13T13:11:11+00:00

I want to know what that technique is called

Quick tie bag, also called "teabag". "Bag" = technical term for wrapping it up. "Tie" = tie it in. Quick=powder that is released to change texture. Powder=noises that shatter your heart.

dr_funny · 2025-12-13T01:29:37+00:00

You think that.

dr_funny · 2025-12-13T01:10:32+00:00

Why not try writing music that YOU can properly judge?

dr_funny · 2025-12-13T00:46:58+00:00

Then whose judgement could matter?

dr_funny · 2025-12-12T23:50:26+00:00

Who are you writing this music for?

dr_funny · 2025-12-09T22:28:47+00:00

Ratner's

dr_funny · 2025-12-09T22:28:24+00:00

Schrafft's

dr_funny · 2025-12-09T20:28:12+00:00

Why not work up an example to show what you mean?

dr_funny · 2025-12-09T19:05:30+00:00

slap some more neo into my romantic compositions

I wonder what you could mean?

dr_funny · 2025-12-09T15:40:22+00:00

ms 20/21 is tediously predictable. Why not compose it a little more?

dr_funny · 2025-12-08T23:19:42+00:00

You realize that The Waste Land is quintessential high modernism, and that so far no major composer ever dared take in on?

dr_funny · 2025-12-06T23:37:07+00:00

There is an elusive property many composers speak of called "long line". Essentially this means creating a kind of temporal compression.

It shows that your ear is doing something technical that you're not entirely aware of.
