Download or read book Escape a Mind Cage written by Synem Zhang and published by Synem Zhang. This book was released on 2024-03-09 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Escape a Mind Cage" is a captivating collection of 99 poems that traverse the intricacies of the human experience, from the ethereal realms of faith and souls to the grounded truths of life and desires. The poetry forms a delicate tapestry, revealing that our minds are not constrained by external forces but rather by our ignorance and attachment. Each verse serves as a brushstroke, vividly portraying the essence of the human condition, truth, and the complexities of the mind. In the poet's attempt to unite with the present, a rejection unfolds, leading to a profound discovery of the restless "monkey mind." The poignant poem "Slavery" unveils the acknowledgment that true enslavement resides within, bound by ignorance and unmastered desires. "Escape a Mind Cage" extends an invitation to readers, urging them to embark on a quest for the truth of life, embracing the reality and acceptance of their own struggles. This collection is not just a compilation of poems but a transformative journey that explores the profound depths of the mind and the liberating power of self-awareness.

Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to John Cage written by David Nicholls and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-08-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Cage (1912–1992) was without doubt one of the most important and influential figures in twentieth-century music. Pupil of Schoenberg, Henry Cowell, Marcel Duchamp, and Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki, among others, he spent much of his career in pursuit of an unusual goal: 'giving up control so that sounds can be sounds', as he put it. This book celebrates the richness and diversity of Cage's achievements - the development of the prepared piano and of the percussion orchestra, the adoption of chance and of indeterminacy, the employment of electronic resources and of graphic notation, and the questioning of the most fundamental tenets of Western art music. Besides composing around 300 works, he was also a prolific performer, writer, poet, and visual artist. Written by a team of experts, this Companion discusses Cage's background, his work, and its performance and reception, providing in sum a fully rounded portrait of a fascinating figure.

Download or read book Where the Heart Beats written by Kay Larson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-07-30 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “heroic” biography of John Cage and his “awakening through Zen Buddhism”—“a kind of love story” about a brilliant American pioneer of the creative arts who transformed himself and his culture (The New York Times) Composer John Cage sought the silence of a mind at peace with itself—and found it in Zen Buddhism, a spiritual path that changed both his music and his view of the universe. “Remarkably researched, exquisitely written,” Where the Heart Beats weaves together “a great many threads of cultural history” (Maria Popova, Brain Pickings) to illuminate Cage’s struggle to accept himself and his relationship with choreographer Merce Cunningham. Freed to be his own man, Cage originated exciting experiments that set him at the epicenter of a new avant-garde forming in the 1950s. Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Yoko Ono, Allan Kaprow, Morton Feldman, and Leo Castelli were among those influenced by his ‘teaching’ and ‘preaching.’ Where the Heart Beats shows the blossoming of Zen in the very heart of American culture.

Download or read book Writings through John Cage s Music Poetry and Art written by David W. Bernstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume looks at the creative work of the great avant-gardist John Cage from an exciting interdisciplinary perspective, exploring his activities as a composer, performer, thinker, and artist. The essays in this collection grew out of a pivotal gathering during which a spectrum of participants including composers, music scholars, and visual artists, literary critics, poets, and filmmakers convened to examine Cage's extraordinary artistic legacy. Beginning with David Bernstein's introductory essay on the reception of Cage's music, the volume addresses topics ranging from Cage's reluctance to discuss his homosexuality, to his work as a performer and musician, and his forward-looking, provocative experimentation with electronic and other media. Several of the essays draw upon previously unseen sketches and other source materials. Also included are transcripts of lively panel discussions among some of Cage's former colleagues. Taken together, this collection is a much-needed contribution to the study of one of the most significant American artists of the twentieth century.
