Episode 1056 | Nothing to hear, everything to say

In this episode of Nothing to Hear, Everything toSay, we dive into the life and legacy of avant-garde composer John Cage and his most provocative work: 4′33′′. Is it silence? Is it music? Is it art? Join us as we explore Cage’s radical redefinition of sound, his deep ties to Zen Buddhism, and his profound influence on multimedia art, experimental music, and performance. With perspectives on environmental sound, chanceoperations, and the cultural context of the Cold War, this conversation tunes into the invisible—what we hear when we’re told to listen to “nothing.”Featuring researched discussion, thoughtful debate, and moments of intentional quiet.
