Lu wilsonnadya via proxy is working on a sickkkk edit of @peterkappus and @boggo's set from last week
another unpleasant thing is when people steal things by wrongly attributing them to #pastagang while speaking as an expert. "oh yes 'we love repetition' is a mantra that pastagang created"
"in the early days, pastagang created strudel"
mildly unpleasant phenomenon where one extremely keen #pastagang member speaks to another extremely keen #pastagang member as if they're a complete #pastagang beginner
Janeishly@m #pastagang workshops are awesome. DO IT!
(and remember to come back to this post afterwards because it will make even more sense by then)
Green FleuronI learned a new word today: Musicking.
"It thus reminds us that musicking – and you see how easy it is to slip into using it – is an activity in which all those present are involved, and for whose success or failure all those present bear a responsibility. It is not just a matter of composers, or even performers, actively doing something for the passive rest of us to contemplate. Whatever it is that is being done, we are all doing it together."
(Christopher Smalls, Musicking — the meanings of performing and listening. A lecture, 1999, p. 12)
