Paperback. Condition: New. Wide-ranging discussion of culture, consciousness, and music from a unique artist's perspective_x000D_/_x000D_/Feedback is a wide-ranging meditation on music, sound, artificial intelligence, consciousness, contemporary culture and politics, and the life of the touring musician. Author Elliott Sharp is…considered one of the central figures in NYC's Downtown Scene and is a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, and educator. Starting from a background in the sciences, Sharp found his passion for music as a teen, and it has never abated. His philosophy is informed not just by music and its creation but by continuing studies in physics and genetics and a visceral interest in our modern world and its joys and horrors. In Feedback, Sharp engages in speculative thought about how consciousness might have arisen and what the future holds for humanity with the advent of an Artificial Intelligence that is certainly artificial but might not exactly be intelligent. The "Improviser's Mind" is discussed in the context of post-quantum physics, probability, socio-acoustics, and Butoh dance. Sharp loves to digress into unpredictable areas but ties it all together in an overarching narrative that is both personal and conceptual.

Hardcover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. First edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight flexibound copy, unread, in NEW condition. "For over five decades, Elliott Sharp has been on a quest to take the music he hears in his inner ear and bring it to life in the real world. In this vivid memoir and manifesto, we shar…e the adrenalin rush of New York's Downtown scene of the '80s and beyond, where---against a backdrop of junkies frozen 'in a perpetual fall' and escaped tarantulas skittering across club floors---Sharp becomes a pivotal figure at the junction of rock and the avant-garde. Moving deftly between the abstractions of Spinoza and fractal geometry and the gritty physicality of guitars, saxophones, silicon hardware, and offbeat instruments of his own devising, Sharp makes music solo and in a dizzying range of aggregations and collaborations with the likes of Cecil Taylor, Nusrat Fateh Ali-Khan, Sonny Sharrock, Hilary Hahn, and blues legend Hubert Sumlin. We watch as he dodges fake cowboys' real bullets by the side of a highway near Colby, Kansas; segues from Zen tea to single malt with an elfin John Cage; trades licks with Bedouin sumsumiya players in a goat's-hair tent in the Negev; is called on the carpet by a prickly, pompadoured Morton Feldman ("Improvisation--- I don't buy it"); conjures an extraterrestrial opera from a group of high-school students in Munich; and---back in his own high-school days---looks up from strumming Van Morrison's Gloria in Manny's Music on 48th Street to see Jimi Hendrix smiling benignly upon him. A mix of tales from the road and sky with thoughts on music, art, politics, technology, and the process of thinking itself, IrRational Music is a glimpse inside the smooth cranium of one of our most exacting, exciting creative artists." [jacket copy] "Elliott Sharp's writing, like his music, recombines the scrupulously discursive with the deeply humane and reflective. What a joy it is to be informed by this remarkable account of the coming-of-age of his psyche, his curiosity, and his methodology. Sharp paints a picture of lost kingdoms of the avant-garde which aren't really lost, but continuous in our present if we're inclined to notice them. The reader joins Sharp in the step-by-step reinvigoration of intentional sound itself---sound as culture, as science, as art---a process that can never be finished."---Jonathan Lethem. Pristine hardsoftcover w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. Handy & handsome production w/illustrations, photos, brilliant corners, a Selected Discography & Index.
