>I would appreciate a lot to know your opinions about the meaning of music.
Dear fellows,
I am afraid, one should ask opinions about the meaning of ABSOLUTE music. My opionion is that there is no meaning. Giving different names for the same piece of music, for example, gives different experiences. Or, as I generate music from pictures, changing the picture but playing the same music gives different experiences for the listeners.

Dear FISers,
Last postings, that have dealt with the very difficult and interesting
topic of meaning (even the meaning of meaning has been questioned and
analyzed), have reminded me the discussion about music and information,
in which, if I am not wrong, Juan G. Roederer made the question
"what is music?"
Of course, the context and central topic of that discussion was very
different, but at least in my modest opinion it is connected with the
present discussion.
I would appreciate a lot to know your opinions about the meaning of
music.
Is it correct to say that music as a form of communication has a meaning?
And what about other forms of art (painting, sculpture,
poetry...)?
Given that we have some FIS colleagues from Arts and Humanities fields
and/or very close to them, I would appreciate a lot that they share
with us their perspective. Maybe this issue could provide a bridge
of formal connection between science and humanities... don't you
think?
Best regards,
Luis
