A life in | harmony with nature, directed by nature's rhythm is a happy and | beautiful life.

Good point, so: there is a primal connection really? Also, factories were made by humans, and so they are a part of nature, all is part of nature... so, factories, cities, cars, etc., have a primal connection too? | Maybe that's why music made by human beings | can be so pleasing compared to music made by machines. Sometimes the | MIDIfied stuff just sounds like a big, glorified clock to me. Jajaja, you are right, all those MIDI ringtones from celular phones too... it's not so beautiful... | On 4/4/07, Ivica Ico Bukvic <ico@xxxxxx> wrote: | > > Marcos Guglielmetti escribe: | > > > Maybe noise is beauty...
