t-p, that's without doubt the most impressive display of academic rigour I've yet experienced in the as-yet-embryonic field of musical trouserology. Completely persuasive argumentation based on a thorough and unbiased examination of the source materials.

I take my hat off to you.

I'm not sure about this, John. It could well be that an apple corer was pressed into service prior to the strategic placement of the apple. I think we should tread warily.

Yes John! Thanks. You're getting good at this...

We can analyse each composer's attire and its relations to creases, wrinkles and connection with the owner's character.


Why is he wearing a fur hat? He is not on Alaska is he? However, I don't see any creases.
I have to say that Soviet industry was not as good as British in its so called Light sector (nor connected with military machine) what they produced for people. This material was more inclined to crease than Western made material and highly thought after. That belongs to another thread and is off topic here.

Surely one who confuses oneself with one's own logic is just being ILLOGICAL?

Here we have a very rare example of one composer actually adjusting the sartorial disposition of another! 

Do we? It seems to me that Xenakis is simply having difficult plugging in his ipod shuffle, and Messiaen is providing some assistance. What's wrong with that?
