Scholarly discussion of the music of John Cage.

his is for your kind information: 
I’ve introduced a new disciplinary technology called “Silence Studies”
within the ambit of macro-lingustics. The term ‘silenceme’ is coined in
analogy with phoneme, morpheme etc. (cf.

Instead of writing a technical paper on it, I composed a pseudo-novel in
Bangla: http://www.scribd.com/doc/50661072/META-PETITE-NARRATIVE-OF-BHARAT
It was subsequently translated by me into English at the Silence Digest,
Virginia University:

After that it was translated into Italian, thanks to Stefano Pocci & Diaforia
group, Milan, Italy. The Psychology of Silence : English & Italian

The same Diaforia group, who took a lengthy interview, where I explained 
Indian
Psycholinguistics and a different type of communication system(s)related to
“Corporeal Studies”( another disciplinary technology introduced by me. cf.

One may accuse me that I‘m deviating from the rigor of strict
“scientific” writing. In this case, I must reiterate the present position
of Julia Kristeva, who had influenced me much to frame my anti-chomskian
“Crippled Linguistic Creativity Hypothesis”, which was also subscribed by
Chomsky himself(personal correspondence, 1994-95). Cf.
