Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 1, 2010 at 3:40pm: And Erni, the catch is indeed rich this morning. Talking about modernism and beyond, it's amazing how the laws of physics have been applied to individual works of art, cultural movements, social organizations, and ultimately economic systems. Some of it started with the writing of Henry Adams broadly circa 1900 - a renegade member of a New England family that produced, among others, U.S. Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams. He applied, I think it was, the second law of thermodynamics to art. Simply, the idea of entropy. Olson's "composition by field" was not drawn from any poetic tradition but straight from physics. I'm so glad to see someone else thinks along these lines.
