Crafty musicology matters, vitally;
developing focuses from people who are about*. (Not around, this is not a circus.)
developing focuses for people who are about.
developing focuses with people who are about.
Forms coalitions in social life (musicological life).
About ≠ local or institutional. (community=cringe)
Crafty musicology is not concerned with hybrids or hybridity.
is not writing in, with, or for a genre. It is obsessed with genre and with genreing.
is more interested in register than rhythm or pitch or harmony.
Crafty musicology is audatious: better accounts and greater detail.
is analytical.
is pleased to encounter myths, bespeaking narratives for mythical beings (not dramatis personae; history is not a play).
is as much as possible, seeking better craft (technique) from craft’s craftiness and the craft of others.
is bored with prosaic imaginations.
is productive in procrastination (sometimes).
* = 'All over or around; in various directions; to and fro; (also referring to things scattered over a surface) up and down, here and there.'
I like the craftiness
ReplyDeleteand even more the circus,; haha, in this moment indeed it is important to stress that it is dead serious and real as oppossed to the shows that have been going on in both hybrid and determinate directions.
I just want to make sure that each and every passively active participant in this assemblage (the blog had 127 visitors since judgement day) understands that this is not yet another hyper-philosophical nerd encounter.
I will come back, however, to the "is as much as possible" however, to explore the potentiality/virtuality intervention of my tuesday morning's reading encounter.
