John Cage wrote the musical piece "4 minutes and 37 seconds". It is a piano piece in which no music is actually played at all. Instead, the listener is forced to listen to the background noise of whatever venue it is performed in, to consider that "silence" is a misnomer, and to accept that a vital partof music is the setting- the audience is creator of the music just as the performer is.
Now the quotes screen read just "Here is something to think about while you wait" accompanying a white void. The message is clear- "think for yourself".
Instead of being enlightened as to what Dr McCoy said when he caught Kirk about commit another act of cross-species miscegenation with some alien species that wears too much mascara and is unaccountably curious as to what snogging entails, we have become enpowered.
Thank you.
