I think the categories might go something like this, but I'm sure this is
not how teh artists would liek to consider it...
Avant guarde> Experimental> Exp. Electronics>Deep
Listening>electro-acoustics>lowercase/minimalist noise
or it might really be:
Avant guarde> Experimental> Exp. Electronics>House music>micro
House>lowercase
Either way, it does fit into a historical heirchy. Just look at Cage's
ultimately "lowercase" performance.
