"CHARISMA X - IANNIS XENAKIS"



spilling crimson says...

.I am trying hard to do something different and new, so it is like running 100 meters and being at the same time very fast.  You have to try without any conquest, without trying to be the maximal of yourself when you are doing something.
Iannis Xenakis
File:XenakisMDaniel.jpg“Art, and above all, music has a fundamental function, which is to catalyze the sublimation that it can bring about through all means of expression. It must aim through fixations which are landmarks to draw towards a total exaltation in which the individual mingles, losing his consciousness in a truth immediate, rare, enormous, and perfect. If a work
of art succeeds in this undertaking even for a single moment, it attains its goal. This tremendous truth is not made of objects, emotions, or sensations; it is beyond these, as Beethoven's Seventh Symphony is beyond music. This is why art can lead to realms that religion still occupies for some people.”
