A music ethnographer (as he mentioned in a talk I attended some 10 years ago..) who was studying tuning systems/methods of non-western cultures ran into the problem that the musician of an African tribe did not want to show him again how to tune one of their xylophones... after all, he had done that the year before and was the ethnographer maybe forgetful? And that brings us to the fact that the practices of Western science are based on Western philosophy :) sincerely, Marije _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
