Good old Ian
If you didn't care
What happened to me
And I didn't care for you
We would zig-zag our way
Through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain
Wondering which of the
Buggers to blame
And watching for pigs on the wing

Very good guess - all of them is YESS, but I settle for "why deny the obevious child"Kim O'Hara wrote:What's next in your sequence, Crazy cloud?

Re: What music are you listening to right now?
I just finished reading Anathem, by Neal Stephenson. It is speculative science fiction, mostly depicting individuals who live in monasteries for scientific & philosophical research who end up responding to a world crisis, written in first-person perspective.
In the book, sometimes scientific proofs and philosophical points are put to music, something akin to a splice of Gregorian and Buddhist chanting. The link below was created with this in mind, and forms something of a supplement to the book. While it isn't great music on the face of things, I appreciate supportive world-building such as this - at ~930 pages, it was a thoroughly thought-provoking read; the plot was sketched out by the author when he wrote an article which briefly covered the history of metaphysics.
So, here you go: music from a book.

That reminds me of something I read many years ago ... possibly Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game? Anyone else got any ideas?daverupa wrote:In the book, sometimes scientific proofs and philosophical points are put to music, something akin to a splice of Gregorian and Buddhist chanting
Your linked music is sort of sub-Philip Glass ... try Kundun for the real thing:
