long post re theory pedagogy again

the other thing about that vid (and another thing! lol) being that hierarchically a lot of the people doing the more interesting or out-there research and diversifying the field from a content perspective (and, tbh, demographically) are like grad students or early-career people who don’t even necessarily have any pedagogical flexibility & tend to be slotted in to teach lower-level theory courses-- whose outcomes are predetermined not only by general screwy nasm strictures but by whatever the professor down the line in the curriculum is teaching / expects people to know when they get there. and we get paid (much) less also than tenured professors. which is really a generic “thing about all academia” that doesn’t necessarily become a nefarious personal flaw on the part of said scholars and instead ought to be addressed at a structural level bc the scale of the issue exceeds individual instructors’ spheres of influence.

BUT music occupies such a fucked “totally separate from society” space in many ppl’s imaginations that it’s like oh man how dare it have the same issues as every other field of scholarship bc it shouldn’t “really” be a matter of scholarship in the first place. ie music is culturally rendered a “nothing matters just feel it” / “everything is ephemeral and there is only Innate Talent and nothing can be taught” sort of field such that any intellectualizing thereof &/or suggestion of learnabilty / non-innateness is deemed, like, boring & regressive by some people & i’d say especially people raised with a certain awareness of the “composer-genius” culture of wam education. like i’m completely on the “fuck partwriting parallel fifths are awesome” train as a matter of taste (for example) but that does not mean that learning what parallel fifths are-- and why some old european guys didn’t like them *bc they preferred it to sound like there was more than one voice and it’s easier to create that perceptually w/o an overtone effect* (eg)-- is going to like destroy your artistic Essence and make you a worse musician bc now you’re no longer an empty vessel put on this earth to channel brahms or whoever. & plus i think perpetuating the synonymizing of theory-as-field with wam harmonic rules not only is like factually misrepresentative of current research but also is sort of a self fulfilling prophesy such that ppl who would otherwise have completely fascinating things to say & questions to ask are discouraged from non-platitudinous & open-ended (theoretical) inquiry re the content and aims of their own rep & listening, and tacitly learn that composers’ ~~genius~~ descended from the heavens & you either get it or you don’t, you either “have talent” as a composer or you don’t, et cetera

#Which I Maintain is dangerous not bc i think there is a set method of learning all music(s) obviously but bc that's how you get like #weird essentialism & i'm thinking especially abt anecdotes i've heard re: vocal pedagogy where ppl have been subjected to (...)#racial discrimination; gender discrimination; fatphobia / discrimination based on having or not having a certain 'look' to go w your voice #& told they are 'naturally' inclined to sing or study certain genres of music & shouldn't try anything else (not even ranges! whole genres)#which is maybe sort of tangential but i think stems from this same deal of 'you just have to Feel it' & such #the idea of music as ephemeral and quasi-spiritually channeled such that you lose something if you approach it w scrutiny #or if you have to break it down in a way that; in its detail & precision; reads as divorced from immediate aesthetic judgment #the idea that there's some magic there not to be explained; that composition thus is a special ineffable pursuit for special people. bleh #& the... in depth research and nuance and hesitancy to have a snappy take that like ime culturally describes many theorists. is good #& is; again ime; something valued by several music scholars who sought it out as a Way Out Of a certain brand of meritocratic bullshit #toward a different brand of weird pedantry of course but i think it has its place despite being hooked academically 2 a toxic music culture #in the sense that; for sure; there are egregious issues; but the repertoire bias is unilaterally present in wam circles #& it's like well. your problem is 'with' the textbooks but since when has a so called 'voice degree'#at your average som / public institution without enormous fucking tons of money #unlike idk berklee lol #actually regarded choral singing; musical theatre; art song; rock vocals; et cetera with the same seriousness as a wagnerian opera career #and made a variety of music available from a performance perspective as well. i mean my undergrad was vaguely ok here but On The Whole...#bigger fish re funding in notated-music industry and degrees as job prep for shrinking market etc #anyway though...... i value myself too much to be a youtuber lol #imagine me appending that 'just saying things recreationally' post to this post #carol overreacts to life #theorycomp tag

hejka to moj pierwszy post na tym koncie bo mn wylogowalo z poprzedniego i zapomnialam hasla....

Chcialam sie podzielic czyms co mnie oststnio denerwuje jesli chodzi o ed tblr.

Denerwuje mnie to jak duzo osob nagle zrobilo sie motylkami. Nagle wszyscy zainstalowali sobie tumblera i ogladaja ed tblr ale jak zobacza th1nspo to sa przerazeni i nie wiedza jak komus moze sie to podobac i dazyc to czegos takiego. Dlatego ze na tik toku ludzie zaczeli pisac o ed i tumblerze to wszyscy teraz maja anoreksje. Nie wiem dlaczego choroby psychiczne ktore zniszcza wam psychike oraz praktycznie cale zycie sa tak romantyzowane lub normalizowane przez ludzi. Tak samo jak trend na "bed rotting". Wyszyscy zacznijmy romantyzowac depresje i brak motywacji🥰!! ale jak zobacza ze bed rotting to nie jest siedzenie w swoim lozku z ciepla herbata, w nowej poscieli i pizamie i ksiazce w posprzatanym pokoju, tylko ze wlasnie ma odwrot czyli, lezenie w lozku w brudej poscieli, w ubraniach w ktorych sie spi (lub chodzi) juz 2 tydzien oraz brudnym wrecz obrzydliwym pokoju z plesnia oraz robakami to jest juz to obrzydliwe oraz brak higieny (omg no way!!1!1!)

Tak samo jak z romantyzowaniem any. Nie jest to ani fajna albo aesthetic rzecz tylko smiertelna choroba psychiczna. Ja serio nie wiem co ludzie uwazaja za "fajne" w anie. Nienawidzenie siebie? ochote zaglodzenia sie na smierc? chec patszenia na swoje kosci? wyrzuty sumienia po nawet malym posilku? To nic fajnego. Osoby chore bardzo cierpia. Nawet jesli mowia ze nie. Jakbym miala wybor to napewno bym wybrala zeby ana nigdy nie istniala. Zaluje ze sie w to wkrecilam ale to jest juz uzaleznienie.

Ana to nie "trend" i naprawde powinnismy przestac romantyzowac kazda chorobe psychiczna bo jest to bardzo nienormalne. Mam dosc slyszenia w szkole rozmow w stylu "mam anoreksje bo nie zjadlam sniadania" albo "boze tak mi sie dzisiaj nie chcialo wstac z lozka i chyba mialam taki maly bed rotting.. no ale im just a girl". Chce podkreslic ze cytuje rozmowy dwoch dziewczyn z mojej klasy.

podsumowujac wkurwiaja mnie osoby ktore przyszly na tblr z tik toka bo teraz o tym pisza i jednak mam anorekcje blablabla

Dziekuje za uwage czy cos....

"mud is so good for whump. u get stuck in it so badly. and u trip. and ur leg feels heavy now. and ur shoe just came off. and faceplanting into it is top tier whump aesthetic. i love a messy whumpee"

You say as I am transported to two separate memories.

Learning it's a fetish to be dirty covered in something like mud/slime. (I need to not watch sm YouTube late at night I think it's actually making me learn things I was better off not thinking about.) but study videos are so fascinating.

More importantly/funnier. Me falling into that grave. 😭💀

i hope u didnt expect me to be surprised or disgusted by the fetish/kink thing bc this is a WAM safespace /j

DiapOut: Chapter 29

DISCLAIMER: This series contains diaper usage, public humiliation, masturbation, hypermessing, sissification, WAM, mental regression, and other ABDL themes. If you haven’t read the first chapter and want to catch up, be sure to check out the link in the description. I hope you enjoy!

-------------------------------------------------------------

“Now, I know what you all are thinking! Round Two was so blushy that it seems almost impossible to think we could outdo ourselves!” shouted Cassi, pacing back and forth across her platform until coming to a full stop on her mark and turning to the camera, “Well, don’t worry, ladies and gentlebabs, because we think we’ve done just that! Once again, I’m your ultra-loveable host, CassiRole, and you’re watching DiapOut! The only show on TV made by diaper dorks for diaper dorks!”

The crowd roared as lights surrounded the players in a very dramatic fashion. For the audience, it was a spectacle unlike any other. But for the contestants, it was as close to staring into the sun as they could get. “Geez, turn down high beams,” joked Cade, placing a hand over his eyes until they were able to adjust to the environmental brightness.

“Speaking of high beams, how’ve you been holding up, Cade?” asked Kyoko, checking in on the status of her teammate as casually as possible after watching Rupert’s collapse. While Cade continued to insinuate that there was nothing to worry about on the subject of any cannabinoid withdrawal effects, she was a lot less convinced. She also was doing her best to course-correct whatever may have caused half of her team to pick her as the one who needed an attitude adjustment.

Thankfully, Cade was a lot more reassuring than he normally was. “I’m good, really. Firing on all cylinders over here!” he said, raising his arms and flexing his string-bean muscles. He may have enjoyed being high more often than not, but no one could sober up from a weed induced-stupor like he could.

“Shhhhhhhh!” said Keelee from the sidelines, holding a finger to her lips as she stared down Kyoko and Cade before gesturing to Cassi, who was still in the midst of her Round Three opening address. She quickly turned her attention back on Cassi, waiting for her verbal cue to bring up the rest of the studio lights.

“I’m sure you all can remember even a fraction of the simpler time that was your youth. A time when you had all the time in the world. Maybe you played kickball or dress-up for your favorite activity. But not me. As a shy, prepubescent CassiRole, my favorite thing to do was to dive into the gaming closet and pull out one of the dozens of board games. Be it Monopoly, Life, Chess, or Checkers, your girl was a force to be rivaled with. But perhaps no game filled me with more glee than the simplicity of Candy Land,” said Cassi, the audience clinging to every word of her rambling monologue like the suckers they were. Perhaps it was the deep-seated rage over the way Keelee barked at her, but there was a sort of aggressiveness to her speech that made her twice as engaging to watch, “Contestants! Ladies and gentlebabs! Welcome to Round Three!”

A series of awestruck gasps broke out as a cascade of lights powered on to illuminate the entire studio space, inviting the crowd, the players, and those watching at home into the jewel-toned world of a children’s board game. However, unlike Candy Land, the board wasn’t decorated with candy paraphilia. Instead, the candy-theming had been replaced by what could only be described as a dream nursery aesthetic. Gone were the likes of the Peanut Acres and that dastardly Lord Licorice, replaced by far more ABDL-appropriate locations and characters, such as Mount Thumb Sucker, Baby Food Brook, and some mischievous-looking dude in a massive diaper with the nameplate, Baron Von Blushy. A single, multicolored path snaked through the various sections of the board, leading up to the finish line, which was marked by a large, Cassi Land sign written in the same font as the classic children’s game.

“Don’t be fooled by appearances! Cassi Land is nowhere near as simple as the board game it's based on. One at a time, each player will roll their dice and move their entire team forward. If your team lands on an event or punishment square, the person who rolled will have to complete whatever task is at hand, or else the team will be forced to return to their previous spot on the board. The players will then rotate, allowing for the next teammate in line to take the next roll,” stated Cassi as the feed cut away to a graphic package, giving the at-home viewers a chance to explore the board before the game begins, “Whichever team crosses the finish line first will win a whopping 40 points. But don’t rush to the end too quickly! Successfully completed events and punishments will come with their own point totals depending on complexity. And with the points as neck and neck as they are, you’ll want to rack up as many points as you possibly can!”

If the audience was rambunctious before, they were falling out of their seats to heap praise on CassiRole and the design team for Round Three. Even Misa, who was already dreading whatever sadistic punishments were waiting for them on the board, had to admit this was the coolest set she’d ever seen. Having thoroughly enjoyed Candy Land growing up, she was a self-described master of the game, despite the fact that it was purely a luck game. As uniquely exhilarating as it was to be standing within a life-sized board game, she couldn’t let any of it show, choosing to scowl as hard as she could as if her feigned disapproval made her participation any less embarrassing.

Lelaya, on the other hand, did not share in Misa’s need to downplay her enthusiasm. “O! M! G! This is, like, extra, triple-double amazeballs!!!” she shouted as she began jumping up and down on her tippy toes, unable to contain the excitement that was bursting out of her, “Oooh! Look over there! I think that’s-”

“Shhhh! Calm down, girl. We’ll be playing soon enough,” said Ayaya, placing her hands on Lelaya’s shoulders from behind in an attempt to simmer her eagerness. Looking around at her teammates as she continued to hold Lelaya steady, it finally hit her, “Okay, seriously, when the fuck did I become the team’s babysitter?!”

With a microphone in hand, Cassi joined the contestants on their starting mats, ready to kick this game into motion. “Lelaya, Cade, please join me over here,” she said, prompting the pair to step away from the rest of their team, “As you recall, you two have the important job of being your team captains. So, as your first official task, you will now select the order that your team will roll in. Lelaya, we’ll start with you.” She held the mic forward for Lelaya to speak into.

Wearing a stupid smile on her face, it wasn’t even a full two seconds before the power she was granted went straight to her head. Tapping her chin playfully, she examined her teammates indecisively. “Well, obviously, I’m going first! After thaaaaaaat…hmmm…”

Standing behind both Mia and Misa, Ayaya was quick to gesture to the two people in front of her, pointing to Mia while holding up two fingers before shifting to Misa and holding up three. A few chuckles were squeezed out of the audience as a few of its members caught sight of Lelaya’s back-seat captain.

“...hehe, I was thinking the same thing!” said Lelaya, pretending as though she wasn’t being heavily influenced, “Mia will go next, then Misa, then Ayaya.”

“Excellent deliberation skill! You picked that order fast! One can only wonder where your inspiration comes from,” said Cassi with a hint of sarcasm tucked into her voice. She did her best to withhold her laughter over Lelaya’s adorable Littleness as she shifted the mic to Cade, “Alright Cade, you’ve had extra time so I expect you to be ready.”

Nodding his head, Cade spoke into the mic, “I am. Since Rupert’s hanging in there with some stomach issues, I’ll have him go last. And sorry guys, I don’t wanna throw myself onto punishments if I can help it, so I’ll go second to last.”

“That leaves Kyoko and Zeke,” said Cassi, pulling the microphone back to her mouth briefly as she narrated Cade’s decision-making.

Looking back and forth between his President and Vice President, Cade was racking his brain to come up with any justification to have one go before the other. Both were equally capable, so that wasn’t as much of an issue. Thinking back to how he previously voted, he finally came to a clear decision. “Kyoko, since I voted for you early on that attitude adjustment, you can go second. Sorry, Zeke,” he said, his gaze falling to the floor.

Sighing, Zeke had a feeling that he would be rolling first for his team. Shrugging his shoulders, he did everything in his power to take the pressure off of Cade. “It’s fine by me. The Biggest among us should go first, after all, right?” he said cheekily, earning chuckles from both his teammates and the crowd.

“Perfect! Go ahead and return to your teams,” said Cassi, dismissing Cade and Lelaya back to their starting mats, “Next, I need Ayaya and Kyoko to join me, if you’d both be so kind!

Eying each other up as they approached Cassi, Kyoko was taken aback by how much Ayaya was mad-dogging her. Yeah, they were opponents in this game but she had nothing personal against this girl or anyone on the enemy team.

However, what Kyoko thought was Ayaya displaying her animosity towards her was actually the result of her being caught in the crosshairs of Ayaya and Keelee, who were busy glaring at each other. Their reasoning was pretty straightforward. Keelee knew Ayaya was up to something, and Ayaya, who was indeed up to something, despised Keelee for refusing to get off her back. It was only a matter of time before such a volatile pair inevitably butted heads.

“Ooh! I’m sensing some tension!” remarked Cassi, never passing up a moment to squeeze as much drama out of her cast as possible. Spotting Ayaya’s heated expression, she approached her first with the mic, “Any words for your rivals before we kick off Round Three?”

In an instant, Ayaya’s attitude shifted as she remembered the cameras that were all around her. She’d let Keelee get the better of her and needed to recover without painting herself as a villain in the eyes of the audience. Taking a deep breath in through her nose, she softened her expression into a cheeky smirk, “Just try not to mess yourselves too bad out there when we spank you in front of all these people,” she said, riling up the crowd with her schoolyard taunts.

“In your dreams,” responded Kyoko, her competitive nature getting the better of her as she spoke without the microphone in front of her.

“CUT!” shouted Jackson from the side of the stage, “You need to wait for Cassi to approach you. And you’re supposed to be lisping, remember?”

Groaning, Kyoko bonked herself on the forehead with her palm, having momentarily forgotten about her new acting gig. Scrunching up her face, she was less-than-pleased with the idea that whatever comeback she said needed to be vocalized with a hypnotically-induced lisp. Gritting her teeth, she waited for Cassi to cross over to her with the mic, dreading the embarrassment that was coming her way.

“Some tough words! Any response, Kyoko?” said Cassi, utilizing every ounce of media training she had to keep from giggling at what was to come.

Looking Ayaya dead in the eyes, Kyoko decided to keep it simple, knowing anything more would amplify her faux impediment. “Bwing it on, mushy tush,” she said, her cheeks burning as the audience chuckled and cooed at her “babified” voice. To her credit, she did manage to get Ayaya to blush as well by reminding her of her hypermessing from Round Two.

“Love the energy! You both are gonna need that as we move into Round Three,” said Cassi as she handed out two small medallions with binkies engraved on them, one to Kyoko and one to Ayaya, “You’re also gonna want this! That medallion allows you to veto any one punishment or event and can be used for anyone on your team. Since your teams trust you both so much, I’m sure you’ll make the right decisions.

Dismissing Ayaya and Kyoko back to their respective mats, Cassi rotated 180 degrees and faced the camera that had been positioned directly behind her. As she posed between the two teams, she wondered if she was almost more excited to see Round Three play out than any member of her adoring audience. “The board has been set! Let the games begin!”

TO BE CONTINUED…

🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻

@jaskiersbeloved Jprdl ale się na mnie rzucilaś za to, że rugam brzydotę w polskich filmach xd no ale dobrze, lubię wystawiać swoje nowatorskie idee na oceny, gdy podajesz argument "ale komuś może się podobać" to nie wiem czy jest sens mówić dalej o jakimś estetyzmie, jednak pamiętam, że pojęcie piękna jest teraz wypaczone, wiem też wychowaliśmy się w cieniu dawnej cywilizacji więc rozmowy takie muszą być trudne

Będę robić moje wywody, gdzie chcę, a autorka sama włączyła się w moje rozważania, mówiąc że ją to zainteresowało, a obraziła się dopiero gdy uznała, że zamiast czcić jej fanart mam do niego jakaś uwagę a tak nie może być i to rasistowskie i ogólnie tylko bogate kraje mogą robić filmy o arystokracji... Poza tym dosłownie może ukryć mój komentarz, przestań udawać że to jakaś zbrodnia. Nie zatrudniła cię jako swojego adwokata, więc co ty w ogóle za pouczenia stosujesz.

Żartujesz z tym że cały amerykański przemysł nie leci na vibe'ach, prawda?? Oczywiście że leci. Filmy o "rozpierduchach" jak mówisz, są estetyczne (dobry wybuch, pożar jest estetyczny, w ogniem i mieczem było to na strasznym poziomie ale zrzucam to na brak pieniędzy, natomiast ściąganie spodni w scenie w karczmie w tym filmie było niepotrzebne i ordynarne, i nieestetyczne), ich romanse są estetyczne. James Bond to wcale nie estetyka, co nie? Przystojniak w pięknych furach z najpiękniejszymi kobietami... Dosłownie "hollywoodzki uśmiech", "hollywoodzcy aktorzy" itd. do kultury przeszło mówienie, że taki ładny jak w hollywoodzkim filmie. Chalamet to vibe i uroda, DiCaprio, Depp itd. to jest podstawa amerykańskiego przemysłu filmowego. Nie Karolaki. Jakimowicz wprost powiedział że dostał rolę ze względu na urodę, a nie umiejętności aktorskie. Mówił że reżyser filmu wrócił z Ameryki i powiedział że w Ameryce aktorzy są ładni a w Polsce charakterystyczni więc on chciał zrobić film z ładnymi aktorami i tak zatrudnił młodego jakimowicza (btw uroda bardzo w stylu młodego DiCaprio).

mówisz że nie da się zrobić filmu dbając od początku do końca o estetykę gdy dosłownie Ameryka czy Korea czy Azja ogólnie robią głównie takie produkcje.. Azjaci są mega estetami, tam nie zagrasz jak masz wygląd szczura lmao (zaznaczę że nie lubię azjatyckich produkcji, bo zdaje się że wam się wydawało że lubię i wy, fani, doznaliście szoku po mojej krytyce. obiektywnie oceniam, że umieją w estetyzm. Tylko tyle.) . Od kilku dni analizuję film Małe kobietki. Film ucztą dla estetów. Jakie szczęście że nie ma tam pochwały brudu i brzydoty. Moim zdaniem bohaterowie są całkiem z krwi i kości, a zupełnie fikcyjni. Sielsko jak w Panu Tadeuszu a i smutne chwile są pokazane w aesthetic sposób. Nie wiem dlaczego ten aesthetic film miałby cię tak razić i że w Polsce absolutnie się tego nie da zrobić. Pamiętam jak film z Chalametem Mój piękny syn był w Polsce krytykowany za to że chalamet jest tam zbyt czysty, zbyt idealny, nie wygląda na borykającego się z uzależnieniem. Wiem, że Polska przedstawiałaby go jako zarzyganego cały film. Ale na szczęście to był niepolski film (w moim pierwszym poście nie było o tego typu filmach ale to przykład jak dbać o aesthetics).

Ty sama oglądasz wymuskanych azjatyckich mężczyzn walczących o idee, umierających za nie. Ile z twoich ulubionych dram jest o azjatyckich karolakach w wojnie z Japonią? No pewnie niedużo. Ja chcę filmów rycerskich, których brak w polskiej kinematografii a ty mi polecasz film o jakiejś babie, promującej antykoncepcję. Ja chcę budować mentalność zwycięzcy a ty mi polecasz kolejny film o tym jak Niemiec kopie Polaka i każe mu się kłaniać przed swastyką. Jakby azjatka zapytała mnie o polecenie polskiego filmu to na pewno żaden z tych, nie przez taki pryzmat powinniśmy budować zainteresowanie swoją wielowiekową kulturą. Prawdopodobnie mogę policzyć na palcach, które filmy z vibem polskości można pokazać bez wstydu.

Nie piszę, że dla ciebie te azjatyckie historie są do zapomnienia wtf? Piszę że są Z MOJEJ perspektywy do zapomnienia. Ty lubisz tę estetykę, ich poczucie humoru to pewnie sobie zapamiętasz. To, że reagujesz tak gwałtownie i przestajesz czytać ze zrozumieniem pokazuje tylko jak azjatyckie lecenie na estetyce jest dla ciebie ważne. Jak ci modele - baśniowe stworzenia działają na ciebie. To potwierdza moje tezy. Gdyby głównymi postaciami byli koreańscy czy chińscy grubi janusze to uwierz mi że byś tego tak łapczywie nie oglądała. Myślę, że to podstawy psychologii. Dziewczyny zachwycają się gdy je w książce porwie i wykorzysta włoski model i chcą z nim ślubu, ale gdy miałby je porwać i wymolestowac gruby janusz to do więzienia z nim!! tak działa biologia.

Azjatki (dokładnie dwie) uczące się polskiego i oglądające polskie filmy pytają mnie dlaczego w polskich filmach są ładne aktorki ale brzydcy aktorzy. No ja nie wiem co im odpowiadać. Mówię że Polacy nie zwracają uwagi na wygląd aktorów no bo co mam powiedzieć, a dla nich to jest dziwne. Azjatka przyjeżdżająca do Polski jest zaskoczona jak dużo jest tu przystojnych mężczyzn bo w polskich filmach tego nie widziała. Polka oglądając azjatyckie produkcje jest pod wrażeniem azjatyckich mężczyzn a gdy zamieszka w Azji to jakoś jej mija. z czego to wynika hmm... Dlatego przestań mi wmawiać, że nie podoba mi się po prostu polska uroda, bo imo jest ładniejsza od azjatyckiej. Bez porównania w ogóle. Cały czas mówię, że chodzi mi o coś innego.

Nie wiem czemu próbujesz mnie przekonać, że to jakiś problem, że nie wszystkim Chińczykom podoba się jak chińskie seriale promują Chiny. Nieważne czy każdemu Chińczykowi się podoba że poprzez seriale jego kraj jest postrzegany w dobry sposób. soft power działa, turystyka się napędza, robisz im kliknięcia i kasa do chińskich kieszeni leci.

Słuchaj, ja wiem, że polski przemysł jest na innym etapie, że nasza kultura sarmacka i wcześniejsza jest zakopana głęboko więc, gdy mówię że trzeba ją odkopać i przedstawić tak, by robić soft power oraz biorąc pod uwagę psychologię i biologię nagrywać go tak, by osiągnął jak największy sukces to dla Polaków to jest czarna magia i wpadają w takie nastroje jak ty. Ja tylko mówię że więcej piękna, złotego wieku, szlachetnych wartości, więcej mentalności zwycięzcy, mniej rozbierania aktorek, patologii i ojkofobii. To na początek. wiem, że dla Polaków to nie do pomyślenia, nie jesteśmy estetami jak słusznie Dmowski pisał. Wiem, że będziecie mówić, że to się nie uda i oglądać seriale innych którym się jakoś udaje. Wiem, ale daję świadectwo.

#może fabijanski ci się podobać ale żaden esteta nie powie #że tak blisko osadzone oczy są ładne..#na antycznej rzeźbie by nie przeszło lmao #dobra darujmy już

i read a paper last year that said that music in the west is treated as a science, only accessible to specialised practitioners with appropriate training, and i think the heavy criticism of theory teaching is a response to that attitude, that you "need to know the rules to break them" kind of thing, rather than seeing theoretical knowledge as part of a personal relationship w/ art

i’m replying to your replies as a post lol bc this got long-- but yeah that makes sense! thank you for adding these and especially your points re: spirituality, which i hadn’t thought about in that light. what i was trying to get at was a specific attitude towards wam in particular and how i’ve seen people use “theory isn’t always helpful” to mean that this music is too special/precious/transcendent to analyze, or that it doesn’t have just as specific a cultural context as any other music (e.g., bach is just obviously good bc he was a genius individual, there are no shared aesthetic preferences governing his decisions or trends his music falls into). i should have used more precise language there though, bc i think having a personally spiritual &/or otherwise non-theoretical relationship w/music is great when cultivated on your own terms. i’m also coming from a background of choral singing in the southern u.s., which i have found to be fraught about this even in nominally secular contexts. you can’t get through a typical voice degree here w/o singing casually xian music, sometimes church gigging, etc, so that is informing my use of the term “spiritual”

#carol replies to things #theorycomp tag #thank you!! been away from tumblr for a while so had to reread this whole convo to remember what i meant at the time #i think also just to clarify my issue is less with critique of western theory ed which does almost unilaterally suck rn #than with critique thereof by wam stans who are like very invested in the purity and universality of Their musical traditions #& get uncomfortable when wam is analyzed because they don't like the idea of said music as having a specific context & being made by people #like idk my own circle of music theorists irl is mainly people interested in musical/cultural studies of timbre & genre which are v social #and which show up basically nowhere in formal curricula because of a larger investment in getting people to exclusively study wam #ie 'useful' music for performers to know and 'useful' parameters thereof #(which is common to private lessons; ensemble rep; history classes...) & is job training for conservative opera/orchestra spots etc #so it's funny to me how some ppl otherwise very ok with western music ed & wam culture are also very against theory for like #revealing the weirdness & specificity & rules of said music that was 'supposed' to be transcendent & universal etc. is what i mean i guess #like there are bigger fish to fry but instead people are stuck on 'put more women in theory textbooks' or w/e which does not solve The Issue #if any of this makes sense. idk

Occlupanid Tags

A running list of the common tags used by this tag project. Artoklasia is a tagging experiment to observe the interplay of tag clouds for particular mature themes.

At the risk of my engineered charm of nuance and mystery, I have decided to add concept clouds to the tags list. Think of these less as strict definitions, and more of a general concept of what to expect from a given tag.

The most common CWs I do my best to tag for: blood, emeto, gore, nihilism, trypo, violence, unsanitary.

In order to guarantee this blog is only visible on PC to people who are 18+ and have opted into seeing Mature Content, I am officially giving my pinned post Labels.

In addition to the above, I've done my best to tag as many posts as possible with the contributing artists. If it's a publication like a zine, I try to remember to tag that, too. If you ever feel cheeky and want to help me source anything in my #Needs Source tag, you're lovely.
