It interests me how the ancient work could be so silent compared to the modern world, since the industrial revolution with the coming of machines. There's so much more noise compared to what life was like back then. Music was born out of the first sound made by our ancestors through instruments of some kind. What the Futurists strive for is noise-sound, something that we seem to be getting close to. Another is musical noise, which makes noise more harmonious.
The Futurists seem to want to break away from what is already known about music. Something that use the same instruments, despite how well the composition may be. They want something new. When most people think of noise, they hear loud and discordant noises, forgetting about noises that could be pleasant to the ear. I liked the small excerpt by the poet Marinetti, where he adds the noise made by the environment to bring the story to life. I especially liked the 6 families of noises, where the pdf gave examples of each family.
