-ion As Rhythm.m4a








In those ancient times in which poetry came into existence, the aim was utility, and actually a very great utility. When one lets rhythm permeate speech - the rhythmic force that reorders all the atoms of the sentence, bids one choose one's words with care, and gives one's thoughts a new colour, making them darker, stranger, and more remote - the utility in questION was superstitious. Rhythm was meant to impress the gods more deeply with a human petitION, for it was noticed that men remember a verse much better than ordinary speech. It was also believed that a rhythmic tick-tock was audible over greater distances; a rhythmical prayer was supposed to get closer to the ears of the gods. (Nietzsche 1882-1887/1974, 138)

TRANSLATION AS RHYTHM
from Errant Bodies Press.

CD - 77mins - 12pg booklet - 2006

















Translation As Rhythm is an investigation of reference, reflexivity, and stasis through the reactivation of the contents, methodologies, and structures of past compositions. With attention to this CD’s external partaker-specific meaning-making processes, internal associations, and fundamental presentation, Fowler advances a considered historical position of post-conceptual and post-minimal thought, practice and status. The CD specifically references Ludwig Wittgenstein, Erik Satie, John Cage, Joseph Kosuth, James “JLIAT” Whitehead and Fowler himself. Translation As Rhythm’s contents include: percussive sounds, speech synthesizers, noise drone, field recordings and a supplementary booklet.

CD track listing:
1. Wittgenstein to Fowler
2. Satie to Cage to Fowler
3. Variable Occurrences to Fowler to Fowler
4. Kosuth to Fowler
5. Fowler to Fowler
6. Digital Data to Whitehead to Fowler
7. Fowler to Fowler to Fowler
8. Fowler to Fowler
