Hello Declan and Marsha


Marsha:]
My interpretation is that the Romantic is flowing with the Code of
Art (process & DQ).  Classical would be on the Intellectual Level,
which could also be on the cutting edge of DQ (Intellect & DQ).  But
this is my very humble interpretation.


I kind of agree, although, I think the main point is that romantic mind may be something as strange as an attachment and valuing of things that aren't clearly defines. The romantic mind will not like to have the things it values defined and dissected by classical analysis. Now: a classical valuing of things need not necessarily be of the intellectual level I think, it is just the appreciation of clear patterns. and perhaps then it is the valuing of understanding (clearly linked to clear patterns, I mean that's why people like them) then of course it IS of the intellectual level.

Well, just my random thoughts, for what it's worth

Have a Good one


Greetings Chris,

Here's a quote from ZMM that describes what you're saying about the Romantic poin-of-view.

"I guess I forgot to mention John is a musician, a drummer, who works with groups all over town and makes a pretty fair income from it. I suppose he just thinks about everything the way he thinks about drumming...which is to say he doesn't really think about it at all. He just does it. Is with it. He just responded to fixing his motorcycle with a beer can the way he would respond to someone dragging the beat while he was playing. It just did a big thud with him and that was it. He didn't want any part of it. " (ZMM, Chapter 5)
