Week 10

I always take music as a journey to freedom.



In the history of music, it has always been that some people insist on an idea, and some other people rebel against using a new idea. This happened in medieval, happened as romanticism, happened for Igor Stravinsky, happened all along jazz, happened for John Cage, happened in rock and rap, is happening to all sizes of bands, is happening on YouTube and Twitch, is happening in live houses, and is happening on SoundCloud and Bandcamp.



Music is free. Do whatever you want. You are free.



What are the things that are imprisoning us? What are we rebelling against?



I don’t know, but there are too many.



How can I even rebel? What can I even do?



Too many, because you are free.



What if others dislike you?



I don’t care, because music is free.
