Sorry I can't let go that was too hilarious.

Otherwise, well, uh, it's a red line. ... I don't know what else to say. This type of stuff doesn't work for me, it's waaaaaaay too vague.

How the hell is the red line there a musical idea again? Is it related to the title? Is it supposed to be interpreted in an instrument? Any instrument?

Just drawing a red line and not saying anything isn't really working here. I mean, Gardener talked about Cage and stuff in the other thread, and he's right. You need to be more elaborate, expose something more than just the drawing or I can as well not treat it as music since the only thing musical about it is the context and forum, not anything related to the actual thing.

I mean, everything can as well be considered "musical" but this, like I said elsewhere, on the interwebs simply don't work. If we had to improvize something based on that drawing, that's fine. If it had something to do with physical location, that's fine too. But as it is?

I don't know if you really understand the whole spirit of the fluxus thing. What is this supposed to represent? And I'm sure you're aware stuff like this works if you're actually THERE in person and such things with "happenings" and so on. You can't artificially recreate that sort of stuff, much less on the internet.
