Im curious because several of the composers that I enjoy most have their first training in disciplines other than music. I have a personal interest in this type. Arch, can you please spare me and everyone else the annoying snipits. Make up your mind between advising people to 'not be rude' and being rude yourself. Its funny to laugh at you for a time, but then it becomes annoying.

rthe whole mysterious part ... it was exactly the same with aphex twin in older times, nobody knew his face nor his name, the greatest rumour were spread aboput him n all
and yes it is to sell more records, it's sad now that rich is less mysterious, it was part of the magic i think

AFX will always be somewhat mysterious to me. All great artists and thinkers are.

Well, I have no interest in his personal life. I find his creative process interesting and mysterious.

Yeah its funny to laugh at you Omneignotumus but its starts to get pretty annoying, you seem to be so close minded that its realy sad. Cant you just leave me alone, stop it. You are the most pathetic person I met so far on this board and I been here for a while.
Leave me alone and stop this bullshit.

You have thrown childish insults while I have not, and then you follow up your insults with things like 'why can't people be nice and polite'. Its irritating. Everyone on the board is entitled to their opinion and differences in opinion make for discussion. Your direct personal insults can be left out. Your insults are what are pathetic not my voicing a difference of opinion. Aren't you capable of a discussion? If you want me to 'leave you alone' then please, by all means don't direct and insult at me on a personal level. Why does this seem confusing?

I can't figure out at ALL why Archrival's ranting at the start of the thread pissed people off. Huh? It was a good read... I didn't agree with most of it, but there was some cool ideas. And he wasn't forcing it on anyone... jesus.
Are all you ''PhD, elite formal education'' mathematic types THIS antisocial? ''you turned the topic into an AOL chatroom'', ''Curious; what jobs do you people have that you can post on here throughout business hours?''... uh... what does that have to do with anything? You're high and mighty and above the rest of us, you've proved that. :-L You know everything and Archie knows nothing, and has no right to post his thoughts on this board. Shame on him.
And for god's sake, don't leave Archie alone. He wants to call this shit off, and you won't let him. His views were interesting, if flawed... yours are just depressing to read. No need to try to embarrass him (which you clearly CAN'T do, he's above you anyway) by pointing out how ''wrong'' he is. At this point, nobody cares about your ''Archrival knows shit about math'' crap.
Well, except me, I'm wasting my time typing this out. :-/
Is it necessary to take a math course in college? I haven't taken one yet, I hope I never have to. I fucking hate math! Gives me the shivers.

I actually believe that the universe runs on mathematical principles, in nature, music, everything.
But I think all that the letter 'Y is 2 and 5 with is 7, and the letter Y is the question why? And the answer to 7 is god' stuff [loosely paraphrased]
is a load of crap...
and taoist, I agree with everything you're saying about BoC.
Omneignotumus: Gravediggaz use mathematical formulas?!?

Also: Elusive, I didn't claim to know anything about math, but since you did, can you explain to me what exactly BoC is doing with math, as I asked (in post 112755) above?

but...when I get a bit of time today, I'll outline how maths lies at the bottom of most music...it's fairly simple (it must be if I can explain it..;)..
But yeah...music is a lot more than just maths...there has to be some sort of communication going on which implies an intelligence not just mechanics...I'll get back to this later...

Ophecks: FINALLY a guy who understands me!!!!! "Ophecks" I love you ;) right now Im so glad I wanna kisss u or something :=) (not on some gay shit tho, no offense to the gay people out there). I didnt meant no harm to anyone just wanted to type some thaughts about BOC and math thats all.
Yeah you didnt agree with my stuff but you didnt piss on me....and YES I wasn't forcing it on anyone, just wanted u to have a good read thats all (I didnt even claim that it was right or wrong).
Since the first time I spoke to you I always thaught that you was a intelligent & friendly guy, and now u back me up like a true brother (remeber I always got your back ;) hehe. Lets be positive fuck those negative thaughts.
Ophecks thanx for the words of wisdom ;)
"music is a lot more than just maths...there has to be some sort of communication going on which implies an intelligence not just mechanics" ofcourse this is very importnant.

Yeah, where did all that bad-feeling come from?...this is a discussion board afterall and if you can't throw out ideas at each other to discuss then we are in a bad way....
Glad it's got a bit more peaceful now...theres been some great stuff thrown up in this thread; it's soooo tiresome when they get lost in the fighting...

i cant believe i read this ENTIRE thread
uh...
ok im not even gonna talk about all the arguments... cause it was just too crazy for me to take a stand on it. although i will say, alot of people made good points, even people who disagreed.
but whatever
yeah... i didnt dig math in highschool because it was so boring. they didnt make it interesting. im really sad i dont know more about it. i think i might buy a book and stuff...
... id love to add math to my music...
and stuff
