regarding sandeeps questions of the influence of ea in culture:
anybody remembers the film "Les tontons flingueurs" with lino ventura from 1963, where the gangsterīs daughter falls in love with a young musique concrete composer?
and the scene, where her daddy visits the guys home/studio...
and the final shootout "composed" with electronic sounds instead of bullet sounds...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057591/
and then you dare say it has no impact??
:-)

When was the last time a writer mentioned academic electroacoustic music in a novel, either as background, a descriptive passage or as a metaphorical/narrative component of his text ? Who can name artists from other fields (choreographers excepted) admitting in an interview to being spontaneously inspired by an ea composition they discovered and loved ? Which philosopher references ea music as an illustration of his thoughts ? Why do our colleagues at university do not listen to it - while many of them do go to contemporary art shows, theatre or dance ?
