See, he wrote so much, but it meant nothing to me.

reading this is like navigating a three-dimensional space. more accurately, it is like being in a 3-d wikipedia with someone else controlling the mouse. i really enjoy miller's style and exuberance and his ideas on multiplex consciousness, despite many of the ideas being not so new to me.

I got a lot of enjoyment from reading this book, which contains many highly quotable sections. Unfortunately it suffers from a lack of direction, jumping from one concept to another, rarely giving each one as much consideration as it deserves. There are many sections of fluid esoteric prose... if only it would coagulate! Rhythm Science does however do a good job of planting seeds in ones' mind with respect to reconsidering what function a DJ performs, and what meaning or influence music can bring to bear upon the technologically-driven relationships of the 21st century. More importantly still, that music and sound are prophetic for society, and as such can signpost developments to come.
