Default Retirement and the denial of death and art

I'm worried these days that the liver is about kaput....

but, I refuse to go kindly into the good night.

Please...retirement doesn't mean cutting yourself off from the new and edge. You need to work harder because the language of music/art evolves and it is not what you grew up with.

Work. It will keep you younger. Revolutionary art is the change of the language of art - not the subject.

It's like speaking English all of your life and having to create art in French....the language is different.

For music it means odd time signatures...odd tunings...challenging intervals... dissidence is movement.

Stay young..deny death.

I intend to.
