Dear all,
I guess I'm quite enjoying watching the debate unfold (again?). I have my own opinions on the topic, but these are also shared by some of the contributors to the debate so far, so I'm keeping my mouth shut for the moment. Maybe I'll contribute later, when blood pressures are lower!
Related to this, didn't Terre Thaemlitz rail against (the ubiquity and uniformity of) glitch-hop a while back? I can't find this piece on his own website (see
http://www.comatonse.com/writings/index.html#tt for other artcles written by or on him) but does anyone else have a reference to it? Could it have been in The Wire, perhaps? I remember thinking that he had a point (despite the fact that I *do* tend to like "glitch-hoppiness").
I also ought to remind the debaters that this started as a critique of *DSP* noise in particular, not just all noise (although I acknowledge that - obviously - DSP glitchiness is necessarily a subset of "all noise").
Regards,
Clive
