Composers on Mathematical Music
Subtext 2363678


In the time that I’ve known Bucky Fuller, since the late forties, he has had a vision of how [synergetics] could influence music; and he has several times explained it to me. And I have as many times not understood. . . . the thing that puts me off is the presence of mathematics, which has to do with specific relationships.

. . . it may be that it should be the work of someone else, rather than my own work, to bring the vision and ideas of Fuller into music.
