Hi all,
I am just uploading several of my Cage-Piano Music recordings to iTunes, amazon, and all these others.
Now I got a message: it is is not allowed to use the title "In the Name of the Holocaust" any longer. Of course no discussion is possible. In 1942 the titel did not have the tragic meaning, which it got shortly later. It is the word play for "In the name of the Holy Ghost" in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. But all this does not interest anyone.
Bad words - not allowed...
Does the world become better by prohibiting words?
I am a German. We did burn books in 1933 to "protect" our population, to make the world better. The government decided, which words are good and which aren't.
????
