House of Leaves reference? I’m talking about the last panel. :3

Thanks to all of you for the kind, encouraging or insightful comments this comic seems to get. I’m very grateful of this interaction.

This is breathtaking and life-changing.
Your ‘comics’ are just amazing. They’re like a goal I’ve always wanted to reach, but never known was there. Thank you

Lovely shades of Borges.

This raises a world of questions, of course.

Could the composer express something he had not experienced? (The more abstract examples seem to indicate this.) If not, could we reconstruct a life from these experience-composition? If the life involved such experiences as the later compositions, what would that imply about the person? Could we superimpose these sensations? Could absolutely abstract thoughts and emotions be expressed? Could we arrange them geometrically or spatially, or across time, into a concerted symphony? Could we conceive of a medium of art more perfect than such a thing? It would certainly overwhelm all other forms of story-based art. Could it…

Of such things is an entirely new mode made. It’s rather cruel of you to pull over it all a veil of elusiveness, though of course it provides the final touch.

I am a composer of modern “art music” and this comic struck me as a profound comment on the nature of aesthetic taste in the public evaluation of our work, as a community, and how we are remembered by posterity. I will, of course, be sharing it with all my colleagues…

It was a misspelling, thanks.

Lovely strip.

Was the misspelling of “Pupil” intentional?

I am a composer and I call what I do “Sonic Modelling” – right now I am working on coffee. I love the comic. I can see I need lemon pie to go with the coffee.

Being able to release solid pieces of work like the one above on a monthly basis is an achievement to be sure although no-one would complain about releases of increased frequency. Perhaps larger monthly (regular) releases like above with smaller ones (irregular?) interspersed in between whenever you feel, if indeed you feel the need to create more…

Well done by the way.
