Well - how about this - making sounds on an instrument is 'playing' an instrument. Think of me as a zen master. Or not.

zsector wonders: "is this guy actually good at playing the guitar conventionally?". Why does nobody ever ask whether Segovia could play "Sweet Home Alabama", or whether Hendrix had some Bavarian folk tunes in his repertoire? Keith Rowe is not "dabbling in noise making" - he invented a new approach to playing guitar, and has developed this style for 4 decades. According to Wikipedia, he started as a jazz guitarist until he recognised that "trying to play guitar like Jim Hall seemed quite wrong."

before you down thumb me, let me just tell you that I like this stuff.but I wonder, is this guy actually good at playing the guitar conventionally? Because I know I started dabbling in noise making when I was having trouble early on when playing.

And one more thing......I have tried prepared guitar music at various times with different degrees of what I would term success. One of the problems has been the old earth hum factor from combinations of effects and it isn't always obvious why.

Why a minus comment?

Not sure I understand,but don't get me wrong - I love this stuff whatever the philosophy behind it.

freedom is a perceptual reference. 'freedom from something isnt freedom' - k.
