It is impossible to free one's self from the influence of the past, after all
that's what makes us who we are, but it is an interesting exercise to try to
avoid all conscious refrences to the past and present in order to make
something totally new.  DJ Spooky is quite outspoken on such philisophical
modernistic aesthetics.  He calls pop culture today a culture of amnesia,
because we seem to be losing all our links to the past. Anyway, this is for
some other list somewhere else.
