This identical video has been posted twice, but there are far more comments for the other version. Although I realise the serious artistic issues which prompted Cage to 'compose' this piece, I must admit it sometimes seems a bit rediculous, especially assembling a whole orchestra to do nothing. Search for 'cage bus 333' (yes, 333, NOT 433)to see a really effective performance of the piece. It takes place on a bus in Chile.

how can you "cross the line" when you're dealing with art?

dude, exactly. I'm majoring in video, animation and sound. I take a class called Media Arts Survey, and I'm doing a presentation on John Cage. It's truly amazing stuff. People who think that it's "just a joke" or that it's stupid are really only proving that they themselves are stupid. Because they don't get it. It's fine art.

It's not a joke, it is a serious piece. It's avant garde performance art.

Is this a response to "Metal Machine Music" from Lou Reed?

I only watched the first 10 seconds of the video until I decided gouging my eyes out with a wooden spoon would be more enjoyable than watching another moment of this god-awful video.

I wish I could be in that audience, to watch the audience's responses...I'd proabbaly have to shove a sock in my mouth so not bust out laughing....it's radical and brilliant and almost silly it's so different...
