Ecstatic Stochastic Practice anyone?

Learning to learn the I Ching in the Hallway

Learning to learn the I Ching in the Hallway

We are learning to learn the I Ching in the hallway.  Come by to Experience.

The spirit of Mr. Cage expands upon this practice continuously and posthumously here at Mills, apparently a hotbed of “Modern Music” development in its early days.

Well, the work of John Cage elevated Chance to a creative system, and he apparently threw the coins often and regularly.  He used the results to inform his musical pieces as well as printmaking experiments.

For some reason taking me back to college days hanging around Witter Bynner and throwing the coins.  Did we believe it then?
