Music Commentary

The design of my project choice is based around time structure and the basic rules of musical composition. My hypothesis is that there is a purpose for music (or even just noise produced by musical instruments) that does not adhere to the guidance of a metronome. Maybe it may not even be considered music without a proper the structure or coherent time signature to say it cannot act as a purposeful and interesting form of audio stimulation would seem to be close-minded speculation. Whether or not the end result is appealing or not it should still retain a poignant commentary on the system of musical composition.
Prior frustration in attempting to learn the guitar brought upon the inspiration for this project. At first I couldn't understand the concept of "keeping time," and saw no reason or need to do so. Eventually I understood that rhythms could not be achieved in an aesthetically pleasing way without understanding how to keep time but what brought me back to questioning the importance of it was the modern day pop song. It seems like they are all derived out of a formula, the same formula, which results in songs that are "catchy," or well recieved but don't last because they are not distinguishable from all of the others.
Many rules or expectations of music could potentially be broken but the focus, and only intention, will be the disregard for any sort of time signature.
