The Solitary
Over scarp, over fen,
over gully and glen
I have gone on the feet of the breeze,
ever meaning to find
an abode for my mind
in the mountains and valleys and seas.
But I found not a one,
all the places were gone,
they were packed with the living and dead.
Now I live all alone
in a lodge of my own
where the licking flames are red.
by Jónas Hallgrímsson, translated by Dick Ringler

"I think it is probable for instance
that at the end of the century
it will be possible to programme a machine
to answer questions in such a way
that it will be extremely difficult to guess
whether the answers are being given
by a man or by the machine…"
Alan Turing
From the lost BBC broadcast 'Can digital computers think?'

"Here I have an opportunity to experience everything. Simultaneously.
To know the universe and its entirety, to be momentarily in contact with all reality.
Something that no human can do.
A symphonic score entering my brain outside of time,
all notes, all instruments sounding at once.
And all symphonies.
Do you see?"
From Philip K. Dick's short story "The Electric Ant"

"And I still very often in I want to have a strong tactical information of the score
I will still put a television set on beside the piano
...or a radio going...or two radios going at the same time...
and I'm not that much concerned with listening what's on the radio at that moment...
(I do listen and if it is important music I will likely take it in),
but I'm mainly concerned with not listening to myself..."
from Glenn Gould interview: "Gould Variations:Interview - The Idea of the North"
