Amazon review,

In first place the title sounds silly. But it is worth a second thought. This books frees from seeing music in the traditional application of instruments, tunes and chords. It is meant for young teachers and younger children to find a new access to the "music" of today. It does not only talk of noises, though it does not follow up, what music is or can be. Even as a modern composer I found clear definitions of elements in the digital production. So it is very valuable to lay some ground for our future : consuming and producing of music.

Accretion Entropy @ AGORA, National Eisteddfod of Wales Llanrwst Maes
3pm 10th August.
Performing as 1 third of Accretion Entropy

Experimental electroacoustic trio consisting of Charles Gershom Spendlove, Dr Ed Wright and Rob Spaull. Through performance grounded in improvisation; a gradual accumulation of sounds is used to coalesce and transform a blank canvas from a state of maximum entropy, into structures of ordered textures and rhythms.

An eclectic mix of electric violin, modular synths, custom hardware, and digital workstations are used in a number of unorthodox ways to create an ensemble that reflects the mixed backgrounds of the performers. Sparse cinematic soundscapes to chaotic high energy percussive pieces are all represented in the performances.
