> Dear all,

> I was wondering if anyone had information that would help me date a story
> Cage included in 'Silence' as part of Indeterminacy. The story is on p.269
> and relates to Cage's attendance at a lecture by Jiddu Krishnamurti
> (Krishnamurti lectures on how to listen to a lecture and instructs his
> audience not to take notes. The woman next to Cage is taking notes, the
> man
> next to her points this out to her. She replies that that is what he just
> said because she has it written down).
>
> Apart from narrowing the range to between c.1933 and 1961, I have been
> unable to find any evidence indicating when this lecture took place (not
> even David Patterson's thesis or the letters of Cage's that I have been
> able to see). Therefore if anyone reading this has any further information
> that might assist me in dating the lecture I would be extremely grateful.
