Examining the performance practice Cage and his colleagues developed for this work also draws attention to his changing views regarding improvisation. Finally, with Cartridge Music, Cage adapted his music to his evolving perceptions of broader cultural practices. The amplification of sounds that would otherwise be inaudible, constituted a musical metaphor for Cage's rapidly developing 'McLuhanesque' world view in which electronic circuitry creates an extension of the human nervous system to the outside world. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Contemporary Music Review is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
