It's not meant to be played. It's a joke.

You can try, though you'd simultaneously break all your fingers on the piano keyboard while your ear drums exploded.

Some of those notations are hilarious. "Release the Penguins", and "Gong Duet" probably being my favourites.

"Arranged by accident"... Ha!

It is like the Kaizo of musical symphonies.

This can't be played on a real instrument.
However, it COULD be synthesized in a computer.
Someone must do this!

I wonder how 66/66 would sound. You know, if it weren't impossible. Also, I want to see "Slovenly" used in the performance directions of real music.

Or "Like a dirigible"

Now that I think of it, even though it's not hidden like some of the jokes, "Based on a Cro-Magnon Skinning Chant" is probably the funniest, because it just sits there in the open, daring you to laugh at it.

I bet it could be played if you had an organ built by Bergholt Stuttley "Bloody Stupid" Johnson and played by the Librarian.

First ten minutes of play I ate my loincloth and then got some limbs torn off by a super friendly rat. Thumbs up from me.

You know, there is a legitimate song, I forget the name, that has only silence and involves the pianist dumping water mixed with hay into their pianos. It's so awesome, I have it on my iPod. Well, not really, but I have seen it preformed.

Is it called Ruin Your Piano?  I hate performance art.  Nowadays it seems like you can do any retarded thing that no one else would think to do(Probably because it's retarded) and you're suddenly a visionary.

That is art. Thinking outside the box for art is defined as doing something stupid or simple, making up some crap about how it's 'a metaphor for the lack of postage stamps in todays society' and slapping on a huge price tag.



This went for five thousand God damned dollars. Man but that kind of crap pisses me off. What's that? It's a metaphor for the bleakness of life, for the blackness of the human soul, for the pure simplicity that fills the universe? NO. It is a BLACK SQUARE and as such is something a CHIMP could pull off. It is a metaphor for really stupid people who want to be 'new age'.

So, how 'bout that Beethoven? I hear he's a nice guy.
