I think this video represents the void we all try to fill and the uncertainty of fulfillment in our society and how we're all waiting for something that may or may not come along, ..." WATMM, what are you waiting for? Do you think Huell will ever get what he's waiting for?...

New podcast: ON LISTENING #1. Thinking (through) the ear. Curated by Arnau Horta. Music by Annie Goh. With conversations with Salomé Voegelin, Peter Szendy, Christoph Cox, Casey O'Callahan, Seth Kim-Cohen and Julian Henriques Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/research/on-listening-1/capsula To what extent is listening ‘thinkable’? Philosophical inquiry, deeply rooted in the visual regime, seems to struggle when it comes to theoretically coming to grips with listening and sonic phenomena. It is, after all, no coincidence that the Greek term ‘theoria’ (θεωρία) means ‘looking at, viewing, beholding’. This programme explores philosophy’s seeming difficulty in grappling with listening and its counterpart – sound – as a powerful deconstructive means to cut through some of the philosophical certainties that underpin classical and modern Western thought. Can we conceive sounds as objects, or it would be more appropriate to consider them events? How far can the phenomenological approach to sound take us, and how much can we rely on it? And what about new materialisms? Are they more useful, in hermeneutic terms, when dealing with sound and listening? These are some of the issues addressed in part one of ON LISTENING. Timeline 1:30 Salomé Voegelin - Listening as a tool to reconsider philosophical certainties and conventions. 6:40 Peter Szendy - The auscultating subject, power and the fundamental disimetry in listening. 20:50 Christoph Cox - Materialistic listening and the limits of a phenomenological approach to sound. 31:24 Casey O'Callahan - Sounds are not objects but events. 46:10 Salomé Voegelin - Possible world theory and listening. 58:21 Seth Kim-Cohen - Listening as a form of writing and inscription. Anthropocentrism versus Anthropomorphism. 1:09:19 Julian Henriques - Embodied listening as a dinamic mode of engagement with the world. + If you liked this podcast, you may also enjoy this one: ON LISTENING.

In another recent thread this issue was brought up by a couple of posters. It's an interesting topic, especially as neuroscience is still a relatively new (relatively you hard determinists). While some would have you believe there is pretty much consensus among the neuroscience community, it seems from doing some brief reading that there is not. These two article I found to be useful reading: https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/psych-unseen/201411/the-neuroscience-free-will-and-the-illusion-you http://www.philosophytalk.org/community/blog/laura-maguire/2015/08/does-neuroscience-threaten-free-will I'll post more of my own comments later, but for now, my body is telling me to do something that is definitely not concious decision making.

Hello, everyone! After a long break from making mixes, I have returned with the first of two brand-new productions! Ancient Cries: Let It Out explores the origins of music itself. Why do people make music? Why do we make so many different noises, synths, instruments, loud bangs? Is there something deep inside us, inspiring us to do it? I believe there is. We know that humans have been evolving for millions of years, and that we once lived high in the treetops with apes and monkeys. We made noises to communicate with each other, expressing our emotions with all kinds of pitches, sounds and rhythms. When you live like that for so long, a part of it stays with you. And now, with the advent of synthesizers, audio software, and thousands of different musical instruments, we are getting closer than ever to our origins. Every day, all over the world, new music is being created that expresses all kinds of vibrant, colourful moods and atmospheres, all of them striking us so deeply. The mix is very upbeat and energetic, crammed full of wild and fast-paced tracks for you to get up and get going. Each track was chosen for its unique sounds and expressions that represent the overall theme. 1:10:00, 137MB Download HERE Tracklist: Autechre - Crystel Bonobo - Kiara Jessy Matador - Allez! Ola!
