Let’s take a moment to react to our experimentalists by focusing on John Cage’s 4’33” and Rauschenberg’s “Blank Canvas.”
React to one of the following– you can either start a post or make a thoughtful reply to another post:
Discuss John Cage’s assertion– is ‘everything we do music’? Is Cage’s 4’33” or Rauschenberg’s Blank Canvas art? Why or why not? What are your standards for something to be called art?
Guidelines
A complete score is earned by either starting a thoughtful post to the prompt, or replying to a fellow student in-depth (more than just a few words).
This discussion is open to the entire class to allow for greater variety of opinion and dialogue.
