focus on the definition. the name can be anything, preferably following the conventional rule of other naming objects something a human can pronounce with it's mouth tongue and vocal cords, as long as we agree on the definition.

definition exists. we do not have to agree. you are talking about axiom.

OK: the music we are commonly discussing on this board is not 'intelligent' since it's inanimate and unable to think. It's not braindance either 'cause dance is the moving expression of your body (by definition).
I call it experimental music or just electronic music ( good electronic music ).

if we made or have an objective definition, perhaps one based on math, it would be hard for people to disagree. all knowledge is founded on axiom isn't it? eventually you have to accept something as true because there is no way to 100% prove anything

We grasp reality by applying abstractions to specifics things. Rope-like is an abstraction regarding shape. Rising, falling. heaviness and pinkness are abstract concepts.
Through abstraction we classify, putting into each classification things with similar characteristics. Creatures who have characteristics like ourselves we classify as human. If we poke them and see they are solid rather than ghosts we have added one more characteristic as verification. Sometimes we get our categories mixed up and need to reclassify, such our neighbor not being an ape, or the creature flying around is a bat rather than a bird. To classify we must differentiate.

( i think braindance is more than rephlex. but maybe we should call it _intellectual_ because everyone talks about it, so it IS intellectual. (ex people dont talk so much and so deep about dnb, hiphop nor anything else)
anyway i like the word experimental, because that music is about it.
whatever )

yes but braindance in an interesting metaphor if you use abstraction to interpret it rather than literally.

"To classify we must differentiate."
True only if you consider that 1 item cannot belong to two classes. Be careful you look like a 14 years old kid talking about math classes he will take in 6 years. Maths are a dianoïa, yoy cannot apply them to real life.

( insane... yes, i can imagine a _hard, normal daddy_ crossing a street listening to weird stuff...
i was trying to put afx in on a gig, after 20 secs they pissed me off.
it is serious dose of intensive impulses... i think you can not listen it for a dinner or a conversation in the background... you concentrate on it or it disturbes you...

so math can only be applied to that which is not "real life", like fantasy life or something? I don't know the definition of dianoïa. Don't let school get in the way of your education. You shouldn't learn in year designated chunks.

No ä dianoïa is different from a science (astronomy - chemsitry - sociology ) because it cannot be verified thru experiments. It's the upper layer in other words. And don't let your lack of education prevent you from doing your own researchs.

Sorry but braindance is Rephlex. There is a lot on Rephlex catalogue that is IDM fans would really balk at being called Intelligent. Actually some of that stuff is charmingly and endearingly and wholly intentionally childish and dumb.

it's funny how genre names can get strange. if i, in finland, say idm, people (not all but most of the ignorant ones) immediatly think about very dark non-danceable chillout music, like illbient. and when i try to explain idm is not suicidal at all - well, no difference. only schematic material really fits that description. also, no-one here ever knows that idm comes from intelligent dance music.
as for myself, i call it mostly 'strange electronic music' or even 'different electronic music' (most of my pals think of electronic music as techno, house, trance)

i agree with Flea...Braindance is a trademark owned by Rephlex. rephlex music is Braindance. IDM is a more general term.
but now it's called Xltronic music, right?

i never use the term idm. i don't understand why it's even acknowledged. i wish that this post would be the last i ever heard it from anyone other than bonehead music journalists. braindance is simply rephlex, cause that's what they call it ans it's their music.

at school, where i can't be bothered to explain to people what 'idm' means and stands for, i just say electronic music. if they're reeeaallly closed minded and listening to britney spears, i call i techno to save me frustration. at home, where my whole family is digging most 'idm', i can actually call it braindance, or idm.
-------- what was that new term that didn't catch on a while ago?
