John Cage: "(...) I have the feeling that visual arts are more  
advanced than music. It seemed that way to me; it seemed that music  
follows visual art. For instance, I was born in 1912 and it was then  
that Duchamp was using chance operations. When I saw him in Venice  
many years later in the late '50s I said, 'Isn't it strange Marcel,  
I'm doing now what you did when I was born.' He smiled and he said,  
'I must have been 50 years ahead of my time.' His mathematics weren't  
perfect, but the idea was there. I think people admire music and  
think that it is abstract-perhaps that's what Lévi-Strauss was  
referring to. But if you're involved in music, the ideas expressed in  
it are frequently unadventurous, in the sense that chance operations  
were used in painting before they were used in composition." -
