To-do list for Experimental music: edit · history · watch · refresh · Updated 2009-06-15
- Address excessively long 'artists' list. (Split? Trim? Remove?)
- Rewrite beginning section. Make it more introductory
- Add additional sections, each dealing with facets of the subject. (Brainstorm more on discussion page)
- History
- Academic v. popular experimental music
- Scientific v. artistic experimentation
- Why experimental? Section discussing the motives of experimental composers and performers
- Compare to other Music Genre articles to get ideas for improvement.
- "Techniques" section contradicts the idea that experimental music defies tradition; attributing techniques makes it systemic, which means it is no longer groundbreaking, which means it is no longer experimental.
- Article focuses exclusively on European traditions of experimental music. Is there any reason at all for this?
