rhythmic / theme A drum, two sticks beaten together, a stamping
foot or a hand clap, the essential foundation of dance and song,
your breath, your blood pumping in your ears, your lover's
beating heart. Rhythm is a theme or motif repeated, the music of
spoken poetry, the emphases equidistant, a formal infrastructure
that variations only enhance. Themes represent basic categories
of thought, emotion, or value. While our assignment of themes
may at times seem arbitrary or whimsical, they serve to link
together artists and movements along non- hierarchial pathways.
Follow the themes to look for new disciplines that share
qualities with those you already like, or to open up new worlds
of Art and Culture.
