Lest this theory get out of hand, it seems practice, after all, still makes good. Mechanical inspiration, such as encountered when drawing and improvising on the piano, belongs in the realm of reflexivity. But, up to now, the path through the woods was trampled by hard work and personal investment. Transposing this to the computer is problematic since physicality of effort is once removed.
Resistance is in the mind.
Specially for musicians, who have presumably grown with the inevitability of fighting the laws of physics. Brings the idea of technological cutting-edge to a new light. Virtuosity is an economic threat. Do not aspire to it. As problems get sorted out in the art world's research labs, the artist becomes slave to a kind of permanent apprenticeship.
