[Mass music] has replaced natural background noise, invaded and even annulled the noise of machinery. [. . .] [P]ower has extended its function to all of society and music has become background noise for the masses. The music of channelization toward consumption. The music of worldwide repetition. Music for silencing.
Jacques Attali, “Noise” (1977)
Patterns all around you
patterns everywhere
patterns of behavior
sometimes seem unfair
can you recognize the patterns that you find?
Patterns unfamiliar
patterns lead you through (to)
patterns of discovery
tracing out the clues
can you recognize the patterns that you find?
stuck in your mind
In this land where stability is hard to find
you can rearrange the patterns so unkind
don’t bother asking why a pattern never cries
old patterns never die they just go on and on
Patterns multiplying
re-direct our view
endless variations
make it all seem new

marcaré el sonido
sacudiré mi mano
    -abierta-
hasta el secreto
  el mundo inquieto se entretiene
yo escucho el fuego de mis tripas
arrancadas en el ojo
donde mueven los silencios
