Listener Stories
Oblique Strategies
We asked listeners to create their own Oblique Strategies, based on Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt's deck of abstract instructions for inspiring creativity. Here's some Music 101 listener suggestions......
- Line up six radio stations as preselects. Hit one button after another in a random sequence
- Look at the goldfish and gaze upon forever
- Go too far
- Behave atrociously so that your partner leaves you at the same time convincing yourself it was their fault
- shrink timing, overlay organic gauze, hopscotch African influences exuberantly in gumboots
- Play it in the style of your breakfast
- Think of a tree smiling at the moon on a sunny day
- Pat it and prick it and mark it with me!
- Envision your work as a train traveling
- Pause the session and take time to wax your owl
- Put on some oven mits and carry on as you were
- When you are at your strongest, appear to be at your weakest
- Remove the subject
- Bite the pen in half and create a character on the feeling and taste in your mouth
- Listen to the radio, find a non-station, press record.
