The threads of our communication are our life line. Wherever people gather, they compulsively communicate. They talk earnestly about the weather, the difficulty of work, the problems that other people present. They can't not talk. Conversation is the very lifeblood of our daily existence.
Poems and music for random performance. Panties, music and Cagean chance combine to make this new edition. The I-Ching was cast on a daily basis as the panties were chosen and written about for the day. Musical values were assigned to each line of the I-Ching and "plunked -out" in the computer notation program for various instruments. The I-Ching casts were interpreted and combined in unexpected ways with the panty writings to create this edition that is both book and performance. The measures of music may be combined in any order to create your own unique symphony. An enclosed CD lets you listen to one possible version.
