Quick and The Dead- Rebecca Shalloway

Pierre Huyghe's wind chimes is a piece that caught my attention. The work is composed of wind chimes in the Minneapolis Scultpure Garden that contain every note in the score of John Cage's Dream (1948). In this piece he questions the meaning of sound vs. music. It makes me think that sounds is randomized and that music (even a  masterpiece) is organized sound. It is also interesting because what makes sound organized? When it's intentional? Or when its nice to listen to.
