As I said before, I like the work that you made but I don't happen to be quite that cavalier about trampling the works of the other participants into near nonexistence. Aside from any social implications hat would seem to me to flatten the image we are attempting to jointly create which is, I would say, a composition more like an exquisite corpse (http://www.exquisitecorpse.com/definition.html)which reveals interesting relationships among the various parts. If, in the end, one participant, like yourself let's say - not to disparage your work in any way - decided to filter the entire composition into a constant mono tonal humming sound then - though it might be a fitting conclusion - I am sure most would agree, such an act would be like pulling a audial shroud over the whole work through which the effort of each would become indistinguishable. This is counter productive from the standpoint of seeing how several people might interact together musically which I believe is the central intention of this project. So I would have to conclude that the social and aesthetic concerns must be closely bound together in order to conform to the inherent limitation of this project which is the very thing that makes it potentially interesting.
