MUTEK or the computer generation

Seems like MUTEK, which started in Montreal this week, doesn't only make satisfied costumers.

Yes, it is not obvious to me either that this computer fed population is holding it's ground in the arts world. Somehow, Apple-inspired-steel-design, flashiness and fancy 3d graphics have become synonymous to beautiful and artsy.

Or maybe this computer look and sound generation are the punks of 35 years ago. Maybe I am not understanding them.

Regardless, MUTEK brings lots of interesting music and art in town. I just wish that the point wasn't the pure computerization of sound and visuals. But I guess that's what MUTEK is all about.
