"Experiment Eleven, step forward." ~ The bars on my cage opened, letting me out. Two guards were one either side, preventing me from escaping. ~ I looked around, gray walls surrounding me. The guards picked up the cage, going out the door and walked out, the door locking. ~ I stopped scratching at the shock collar around my neck. I had on a hospital gown, dirty and torn.

My small, pudgy hands reach towards the bright green eyes glowing inside the cage. A furry head pushes up against my fingers, longing for the familiar touch of an old friend. A tear rolls down my cheek, following many others that had already come, and proceeding many that would follow. A cry comes from inside the cage; a goodbye. How could I ever live without the only pet I’ve ever known? When did things go so wrong? It was a hot day in July, with the air as sticky as the popsicle juice covering

John Cage is an exemplary modern composer who believed that music doesn’t need to make sense. He simply

John Cage – Music in Silence When the word music is heard, generally the first thing that comes to mind is how one would be able to relate to the piece. John Cage, a contemporary composer, expanded the normality of music by sounds with no meaning or emotional connection and silence. The propinquity between mind and music is difficult to sever, and to have music without an emotional connection is unfathomable.
