THE WATERCOLOR OF THE DOE AND OFFSPRING STILL IN A SUNLIT GLADE THE NEARBY BROOK FRINGED WITH ICE

“rainwater spots the glass. The watercolor of the doe and her offspring, still in a sunlit glade, the nearby brook fringed with ice, the last clumps of a late snow, is aimed at the viewers' vulnerability, the deep sigh evoking not sentiment, but the memory (half-felt) of the loss of a mother's breast.”

CHIN DO YOU DARE TO STAY OUT DO YOU DARE TO GO IN HOW MUCH CAN YOU LOSE HOW MUCH CAN YOU WIN

“You will come to a place where the streets are not marked.
Some windows are lighted. But mostly they’re darked.
A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin!
Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in?
How much can you lose? How much can you win?”

SEEING EVERYTHING BOWING EXISTING AT DIFFERENT TIMES IN PARALLEL SIMULTANEOUS SPACES NOT PERMANENT BUT

“Especially in ‘Resting lightning that’s night,’ ‘horizontal’ is a way of seeing everything flowing, existing at different times in parallel simultaneous spaces—not permanent, but not ever passing either.”

Scalapino, Leslie. “10 or so questions about It’s go in horizontal: Elizabeth Bryant in conversation with Leslie Scalapino.” Dusie, 8, vol. 2, no. 4 (2009). p. 241.

THAT IS NECESSARY BUT THE FILLING UP OF THE VOID IN THE KITCHEN WITH THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE YOU ARE

“It is not only the naming of each lettuce leaf
that is necessary;

but the filling up of the void in the kitchen
with the sound of your voice.

You are conscious of moving from the sink
to the cutting board:

albeit some of the actions you name
will begin to encroach on and crowd out other
actions
in your brain.”

WE HAD PLENTY OF TIME WE COULD SET OUR HOUSE IN ORDER WHEN WE FELT THE TIME HAD ARRIVED WE COULD

“It is true that these very words that are in Article 2 have been in our own Bill of Rights, but we felt it was a domestic question. We had plenty of time. We could set our house in order when we felt the time had arrived. We could have a little more time for education.”

OF OUR BRAIN WE BUILD THESE MODELS OF OUR BRAIN IN OUR BRAIN A MIND-BOGGLING THOUGHT FOR THE TIME

“However, we cannot avoid building mental models of our brain: We build these models of our brain in our brain, a mind-boggling thought. For the time being, then, picture the conscious and the unconscious as separate compartments.”

THE CONCEPT OF POWERED FLIGHT IS NOT EMBEDDED IN THE ORIGINAL WRIGHT BROTHERS AIRPLANE IF WE COULD

“Musical practice is not hopelessly embedded in music software, any more than the concept of powered flight is embedded in the original Wright brothers’ airplane. If we could dig up the original plane it would in no way help us fly any better than we do now.”

PERFORMANCE MAX FOLLOWS THE PIANO METAPHOR IN THAT OBJECTS DON'T SPECIFY WHAT THEY WAIT FOR

“If something goes wrong, the problem is usually easy to reproduce and track down; and if a patch works in rehearsal it has a good chance of working in performance.
Max follows the piano metaphor also in that objects do not specify what they wait for, but rather objects explicitly choose which other objects to trigger. In other words, the choice is up to the triggering object, not the triggered one (the player, not the piano).”
