Dante Rosati has chimed in. Bear in mind that Dante Rosati has told
the lie that the superb microtonal composer Jacky Ligon is a "slow
brain" because Jacky refuses to parrot the provably false
superstitions gibbered on the ATL -- provably false superstitions like
"small integer ratios produce acoustically smooth musical intervals,
while large integer ratios produce acoustically rough musical
intervals."
Jacky knows that such foolish acoustic superstitions are provably
false. Therefore Dante Rosati had to lie about Jacky Ligon and smear
Jacky Ligon and assassinate Jacky Ligon's character and throw shit at
Jacky Ligon until some of it sticks.
Not content with telling one lie, Dante Rosati has heaped more ordure
on his own reputation by describing me as "mentally deranged."
Okay, Dante Rosati, here's your chance to prove you're not a liar.
All you have to do is produce 3 (three) notarized copies of different
IQ tests to prove that Jacky Ligon is mentally retarded. A sub-70 IQ
score should do.
Produce the evidence in hard numbers from Spearman's g, Dante Rosati,
or stand revealed as a liar and a character assassin.
Next, Dante Rosati, all you need to is provide us with notarized
copies of at least 1 (one) report by a psychiatrist certifying that I
suffer from mental illness, and at least one (1) notarized copy of a
court proceeding declaring me mentally incompetent by reason of mental
illness.
If you speak the truth, Dante Rosati, you should have no problem
finding such documents.
Come on, Dante Rosati. Provide us with the proof of your statements or
stand revealed as a liar and a character assassin.
Jacky Ligon is one of the nicest guys in the world and one hell of a
microtonal composer, but even he described Dante Rosati as "a liar"
and "an asshole." Dante Rosati typifies the kind of people who infest
the Alternative Lying List -- people with no facts, no evidence, no
logic, just hysterical name-calling.
Naturally, Dante Rosati has produced nothing worth mentioning in
microtonality -- no scholarship of any significance, no music of any
significance (his one CD is genuinely pathetic), no mathematical music
theory of any significance... Nothing but crazed lies and hysterical
name-calling.
Of course, Dante Rosati (who has told lie after lie in public) is not
the only example of such pathology from the ATL. We now have the
Three Stooges of microtonality -- Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology"
Smith and Jonathan "Can't Stop Lying" Szanto, and Dante "Call Everyone
Names Until They Stop Annoying Me With the Facts" Rosati. All we need
is Carl "All Idle Speculations, No Music" Lumma and Paul "Self-Deluded
Pseudoscience" Erlich, and the gang's all here.

As for Gene Ward Smith, he unwisely taunted me with the gibe:

"I propose an experiment--why don't you provide either facts or logic
or (best of all) both, and see how I respond?"
==========
FACT: I asked Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith for hard evidence
in the form of notarized IQ tests that I am an "imbecile" else he
would stand revealed as a liar and character assassin.

FACT: Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith provided no hard evidence.

LOGIC: Therefore Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith stands revealed
as a liar and a character assassin.
==========
FACT: I asked Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith for hard evidence
that I am "a microtonal hack," else he would stand revealed as a liar
and character assassin.

evidence.

LOGIC: Therefore Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith stands revealed
as a liar and a character assassin.
==========
FACT: I asked Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith to provide hard
evidence that he has ever heard any of my microtonal music, else he
would stand revealed as a liar and a character assassin for this claim
that I am "microtonal hack."

evidence.

LOGIC: Therefore Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith stands revealed
as a liar and a character assassin.
==========
FACT: I asked for hard evidence that Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology"
Smith had ever read any of my world-class scholarship, else he would
stand revealed as a liar and character assassin for denigrating my
achievement in microtonality.

FACT: Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith has provided no hard
evidence.

LOGIC: Therefore Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith stands revealed
as a liar and a character assassin.
==========
At this point, with so many proven lies under his belt, Gene
"Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith has completely destroyed whatever
reputation he had. From this point on, Gene "Woolly-Headed
Numerology" Smith can only hope to be known (when someone googles him)
as "that character assassin who told all those crazed lies online."
From now on, Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith's only claim to
notoriety is as a person who indulges in hysterical name-calling to
cover up his lack of facts and lack of logic and lack of rational
arguments.

It is accordingly unnecessary to respond further to Gene
"Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith's latest post. All that remains to
be said is -- shame on you, Mark Nowitsky. For shame! Making a proven
liar and character assassin like Gene "Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith
a moderator on the ATL was a shameful act. Shame on you, Mark
Nowitsky. You should be ashamed of yourself. For shame. For shame!

"`What It Takes To Be a Leader' was one of the first issues [General
H. Norman] Schwarzkopf addressed. While competence is important,
character is the king of requirements. Ethics, integrity...and honor
must be internalized and woven deeply into the moral fabric of a
leader. A quick trip down anyone's memory lane will show, as the
general so clearly stated, `... of the last 99 years, probably 99
percent of all leadership failures were failures of character.' People
want to be led by someone with a higher standard." [Lt. Colonel
Michael L. Eastman, 97th OSS Commander]

By proving himself a liar and a character assassin, What has Gene
"Woolly-Headed Numerology" Smith shown us about his moral
character? Is it not obvious that this is the reason for his
catastrophic failure as a moderator (leader) of
the ATL? Shame on Mark Nowitsky for picking someone with such moral
character as Gene Smith to be a moderator. No wonder
the ATL has collapsed and degenerated.

And while we're on the subject of hoists and petards, note well this

Judging by the fact that Gene Smith just yesterday called me "a
baboon" and "an imbecile," what do you conclude about Gene

As for Jonathan Szanto, sue away. I can prove with hard facts, by your
own words, that you have lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and
lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied
online.
Jonathan Szanto has lied and lied and lied and lied and lied. Among
other lies, Szanto has accused the entire membership of the
Alternative Lying List of being "cognitively challenged." Then when I
met him at the 2001 MicroFest, Jonathan Szanto lied some more about
having told those lies. "I never said that," Szanto yelped. "I never
said any of that!"
Then Szanto lied about having claimed he never told lies.
Jonathan Szanto tells lies online. Jonathan Szanto tells lies in
person. Jonathan Szanto lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and
lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies
and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies.
If anything but lies come out of Jonathan Szanto's mouth, I haven't
heard about it.
Mind you, I don't say it's _impossible_ that Jonathan Szanto has told
the truth at some time. I've just never been there when it happened.
The basic principle motivating Jonathan Szanto appears to be the need
to degrade and brutalize and humiliate anyone who dares compose
microtonal music. To this end, Szanto seems willing to tell any lie,
no matter how absurd...to cover himself with ordure, no matter how
vile, as long as his victim gets slimed too.
Jonathan Szanto qualifies as the Roy Cohn of microtonality -- a hated
figure despised by the victims of his lies, infamous for his attacks
on others on the ATL...attacks disguised as mealy-mouthed "concern"
for his victims.
Like a rapist who sternly lectures his virgin victim about her moral
laxity in having sex before raping her, Jonathan Szanto pretends to
concern about the victims of his verbal muggings even while telling
the most ludicrous lies imaginable.
Jonathan Szanto composes no microtonal music and performs no
microtonal music. As someone who whose proven and documented
dishonesty can only be described as "pathological," and as a person
who composes no microtonal music and has released no CDs of microtonal
music and gives no concerts of microtonal music, Szanto has no
qualifications for discussing microtonality.
Szanto's whole goal in life appears to be to tear down everyone else
to fit his secret image of himself. Motivated in equal parts by
apparent hate and envy, Szanto proves unable to release any CDs of
microtonal music and has performed no microtonal music since 1987.
You tell me. Is this a microtonalist?
Or a pathological liar obsessively compelled to rip and tear at his
betters like a paraiah dog dying of rabies who tries to rip the throat
out of every healthy person he comes across?
If Jonathan Szanto has composed so much microtonal music, let us hear
it. Show us the great big stack of CDs he's produced full of
microtonal music. Come on, Szanto. Let us see 'em.
Szanto has produced nothing because all he can do is lie and lie and
lie and lie and lie about microtonalists who DO produce microtonal
music.
If you've performed so much microtonal music over the last 15 years,
Szanto, let us see it. Show us the great big stack of CDs of
microtonal music you've performed.
Come on, Szanto. Let us see 'em.
Szanto has performed no microtonal music over the last 15 years
because all he can do is lie and lie and lie and lie and lie about
microtonal performers who DO perform microtonal music.
Szanto is the poster boy for everything that has gone so horribly,
terribly, monstrously wrong with the ATL.
Jonathan Szanto has released no CDs of microtonal music that he has
composed.
Jonathan Szanto has performed no microtonal music since 1987.
When he encounters a microtonal composer, Jonathan Szanto does nothing
but ridicule and denigrate and ruthlessly rip and tear, clawing with
savage pathological dishonesty, until he verbally flays and
disembowels anyone who *does* compose or perform microtonal music.
Jonathan Szanto has the same relation toward microtonal music that the
Hillside Strangler had to women.
Hermann Goering was reported to have said "When I hear the word
`culture,' I reach for my revolver."
For Jonathan Szanto, the motto seems to be: "When I hear the word
`composer,' I reach for my revolver."
Sue away, Szanto. I'll win with a directed judgment inside 5 minutes
when the judge gets a printout of all the lies you've told online.
Then I'll countersue and take your house and take your car and take
your bank account and take your furniture and take your musical
instruments and county marshals will be standing outside your front
door pasting up notices UNDER LIEN -- NOTICE OF PUBLIC AUCTION.
The truth is a complete and total defense against charges of libel,
Jonathan Szanto.
And since I'm telling the plain and simple truth when I state that you
have lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied in
public, I have no fear of any legal action whatever.
------
Since as far as I can tell Jonathan Szanto has done essentially
nothing for microtonal music but lie and lie and lie and lie online
about the people who create it as well as tell lie after lie after lie
after lie after lie after lie in person, nothing he says should be
believed. In fact, Szanto offers a reliable source of information --
if Szanto says it, the opposite must be true.
Therefore when Jonathan Szanto tells Jacob Barton that:

"For anyone finding their muse, and realizing that your muse happens
to live down a different road in a different town in a different...
you get the picture: it isn't going to be either easy or
straight-forward,"

Since Szanto said it, we know that this is a lie. As we would expect:
essentially nothing comes out of Jonathan Szanto's mouth but lies, so
naturally this is an obvious lie.
In fact, getting involved with microtonal music is simple and easy.
Microtonality is one of the "hot" topics in new music right now, and
it's extremely popular on campus. Moreover, digital tuning devices
have made it a snap to tune acoustic microtonal instruments. I helped
Jonathan Glasier produce a set of 5-equal (240 cent per step)
percussion instruments built from wood, glass and magnesium bars for
the Exploratorium and it was so easy to tune those instruments you
couldn't believe it. We used an old Stroboconn tuner -- much better
digital tuners are available, but Jonathan used that one because, what
the heck, we had it around. And yet we were able to crank out that
5-tone equal set of percussion instruments within a week.
So Jonathan Szanto is of course lying when he claims there's anything
difficult about making microtonal instruments. The reason Jonathan
Szanto has to tell this lie is that otherwise, if you realized how
simple and easy it is to handcraft microtonal acoustic instruments,
Jacob, you'd be in danger of producing microtonal music.
And since Jonathan Szanto composes no microtonal music and performs no
microtonal music, he has to tell lies to insure that no one else does.
Sadly for Jonathan Szanto, plenty of people now produce microtonal
music because it's soooooo easy and so much fun.
If you prefer the all-electronic route, e-mail Jeff Scott. Jeff is one
of the very finest practitioners of microtonal composition using
softsynths (judging by his downloadable MP3s, anyway). Jeff is also a
polymath. That means "someone who is expert in many different
fields." It's rare indeed to encounter someone who is not only a
superb musician, as Jeff Scott is, but also a world-class computer
programmer and all-around digital hardware designer. Jeff designed the
first PCI soundcard for the IBM personal computer, incidentally. So if
softsynths are your game, you couldn't do better than consult with
Jeff Scott.
Speaking of softsynths, an awful lot of 'em are microtunable now. Not
all -- but a lot, and more are becoming microtunable very day. The
ranks of microtunable softsynths include VirSyn Cube 1.5 (a Fourier
additive resynthesis softsynth), Crono-X, Angelina, Rhino, VAZ
modular, Pro 53 (a software re-creation of the Prophet 5 but fully
retunable), and many others. Reason is also microtunable though as I
understand it not quite as easily as these others.
The great thing about softsynths, and what makes 'em so easy to use,
is that many of 'em can directly read SCALA .TUN files. This makes it
effortless to set up a tuning and import it into the softsynth.
So, as usual, Jonathan Szanto is telling yet another lie when he
claims that it's "difficult" to get involved with microtonality. It's
never been easier.
Kiddo, I could tell you war stories... How about the time when I
started composing microtonal music back in 1986 using the Upward
Concepts alternative operating system for the Ensoniq Mirage. At that
time, the Mirage was the ONLY commercially available synthesizer able
to do full microtuning -- meaning, not just "12 out of," which is
worthless.
Get this: I had to write a PASCAL program to convert the tuning I
wanted into a set of tuning units (1024 per octave) and then I had to
write another program to convert those into hexadecimal values.
(That's base 16 numbers running from 1 through 9 and A,B,C,D,E,F.)
Then I had to painstakingly punch each of those 128 hexadecimal
2-digit numbers into the Mirage's two-digit display one at a time
using a friggin' keypad, and finally store 'em to floppy disk.
Make a mistake?
Whoops...do it all over again.
Boy, you want to talk about difficult...?
Yeesh. T*H*A*T was difficult.
Microtuning nowadays is a snap. So as usual Jonathan Szanto has proved
most informative -- as usual, what came out of his mouth was the exact
opposite of the documented facts. Microtonality is simple and easy and
fun. There's nothing to it. Easy to tune, easy to build acoustic
instruments or use softsynths, easy to compose and record the music
courtesy of digital audio recorders and sequencers/DXi/VSTi hosts.
If Szanto's statement concerns the purported conceptual or emotional
difficulty in swimming against the tide to compose microtonal music,
once again Szanto is lying. Nowadays the tide on campus IS microtonal
music. It's the hot new thing. Microtonality for today's adventurous
young music students is about like prepared pianos in the
1950s...everyone wants to do it. It's chic. It's hot. It's "now." Very
different from the 1980s when I started composing microtonal music.
Back then, hardly anyone knew or cared what a non-12 tuning was. You
mentioned "17 tones per octave" and people mumbled "But aren't there
12?" You mentioned 37-limit just intonation people muttered, "Limit?
Why would you want to limit your music..?" Different story nowadays.
Today, virtually every young composition students seems to feel
compelled to turn out at least one microtonal piece just to capture
some of the brio and elan of the cutting edge. So naturally Jonathan
Szanto's statement systematically contradicts the facts, as always.
SOP for Jonathan "All Lies, All The Time" Szanto.

Jonathan Szanto's next lie is:
"I happen to revere those who seize motivation and ideas and then go
do something."
Naturally the opposite is true. Jonathan Szanto has a long record of
smearing and sliming anyone who composes microtonal music. Szanto's
apparent goal is to ridicule and shred and rip and tear at anyone who
does what he can't -- namely, compose and perform microtonal music and
do first-rate microtonal scholarship.

Jonathan Szanto continues with his lies by claiming "The best you can
do is scan the horizon, be it real-world or virtual, gather as much
information as you can, and go forward. DO NOT waste time if an
avenue seems unproductive, and you have to trust your instincts on
this."

Once again, an obvious lie. Jacob Barton's instincts led him to the
Alternative Lying List -- and as we have seen from the pathetic
specimens of humanity who crawled out of that cesspool to indulge in
hysterical name-calling, trusting your instincts didn't work.
Instead, trust your ears, Jacob.
Ask Jonathan Szanto to send you at least five (5) of his CDs of
microtonal music. When he can't, you'll know Szanto composes no
microtonal music and performs no microtonal music and therefore you
should believe nothing Szanto says.
This is why I suggested that you listen to actual CDs of microtonal
music instead of wasting your time with people like the insectile
denizens of the ATL who do essentially nothing for microtonality but
lie and lie and lie about the people who compose it, like Jonathan
Szanto, and the proven liar and character assassin Gene "Woolly-Headed
Numerology" Smith.

True to form, Jonathan Szanto continues telling lie after lie after
lie in public by claiming not to remember one of his more recent lies.
The Jonathan Szanto specialty is not only telling lies, but then
telling the lie that he never told the lie. In this case, the new lie
Jonathan Szanto is telling is the implication that he never told the
lie I cited when I pointed out

"Szanto has immeasurably contributed to microtonality with posts like
his recent comment `It sounds like a root canal without anesthetic.'
Yes, you can always count on Jonathan Szanto to contribute to
microtonality with invaluable passages like that one."

Szanto responded with the usual lie (by implication) that he never
said what he actually did say:

"I have no idea where that attribution goes, but if Brian would like
to cite it..."

"Unfortunately, it is like a root canal with no anesthesia..."

[Szanto was discussing one of Gene's compositions.]

So what's the explanation, Szanto?
Cat got your tongue?
How about it, Szanto?
You claim (without a shred of credibility) that you "have no idea"
what you said barely a week go.
You want us to believe that, Szanto?
This isn't some ancient post from 1994. You savagely attacked Gene's
composition barely a week ago.
Is the problem that you hurl so many sadistic attacks online at so
many microtonal composers that you can't remember this particular
attack you flung like a lump of excrement in Gene's face?
Or is it that you're trying to juggle so many lies in your head you
just can't keep 'em straight, and some of the lies you tell get lost
in your memory as you frantically try to remember which lie you told,
and to whom, and when?
Jonathan Szanto's wildly implausible excuse that has "no idea" he even
made his statement offers potent proof of the wisdom of Mark Twain's
advice:
"If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything."

Notice several points:
First, Jonathan Szanto has tried to deny that he said what he said --
the obvious implication of his claim "I have no idea where that
attribution goes" (in all likelihood yet another lie by Szanto) is
that he never said what he said. Standard operating procedure for
Jonathan "Can't Tell the Truth To Save His Life" Szanto. First Szanto
lies, next he lies by implication about having told the lie. We find
this kind of behavior among pathological liars as a matter of course.
The pathological liar not only cannot tell the truth about ordinary
everyday matters, the pathological liar finds himself irresistibly
compelled to lie about having lied...and then lie about having lied
about having lied...and so on. An endless fractal regression of lies,
lie upon lie upon lie.
Typical behavior for Jonathan Szanto.
Second, read the full text of meta music post 6907 by Szanto. Notice
the smarmy faux-concern Szanto applies like balm to a torture victim
whose genitals he's slowly scraping off with a rusty cheesegrater. In
the sinister manner of one of the Inquisition torturers, Jonathan
"Just Gotta Lie" Szanto enhances the torture, making it even _worse_
by pretending to feel a phoney empathy for Gene even while attacking
him. The Inquisition torturers loved to do this. They consoled their
victims by telling them it was all being done for their good, out of
love, in the name of the God of Love, as they cranked the rack and the
victim's spine separated and blood spurted from their ears and eyes
and mouth. That's another Jonathan Szanto speciality -- pretend to be
deeply concerned about the victim of his pathological lies, even as
the cranks the rack more and more brutally.
The third point to be aware of is that Jonathan Szanto's description
of Gene Smith's composition is a provable lie. Download Gene's
composition in question. You can hear for yourself that it is NOT
"like a root canal with no anaesthesia..."
To see how obvious Jonathan Szanto's lie is, compare Gene's
composition with a musical composition that actually is "like a root
canal with no anaesthesia." If you can find a CD of it, put on Lou
Reed's "Metal Machine Music." I think it's fair to say that just about
everyone would agree that Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music" fits the
definition of sounding "like a root canal with no anaesthsia." (There
are certain other compositions by the pop group Napalm Death that I
could cite, but they're not so widely available.)
The composition Gene wrote in this case, ripped to shreds and brutally
savaged and sadistically ravaged with over-the-top verbal attacks by
Jonathan "If At First You Don't Succeed, Lie and Lie Again" Szanto, is
not even remotely like a "a root canal without anaesthesia" to my
ears. And I think it's fair to say that essentially no reasonable
human being could possibly call Gene's composition (brutally hacked to
tatters with a verbal chainsaw by Jonathan "Just Gotta Lie" Szanto) "a
root canal without anaesthesia." So Szanto is just plain lying -- SOP
for Jonathan Szanto, who seems compelled to lie and lie and lie and
lie and lie, and then when he gets caught in a lie, lie by implication
again, lie by innuendo, lie with Nixonian persistence and
G.W.-Bush-like ardor, long past the point where everyone has realized
there are no goddamn WMDs, and the goddamn tax cuts do NOT benefit the
middle class, and it's all just lie after lie after lie, and yet the
lies STILL keep coming.
The lies keep coming...and coming...and coming. Insanely, without
point, the lies keep coming from Szanto. Just like the lies from the
Bush white house. They keep coming...long after everyone KNOWS they're
all lies...like the Energizer bunny, the lies just keep coming...and
coming...and coming.
The fourth and final point to be aware of is the sheer envenomed
sadism hidden inside Jonathan Szanto's berserk verbal attack on Gene
Smith. Y'know, I really have to feel sorry for people like Gene when
they become the victims of online predators like Jonathan Szanto. Yes,
Smith has done more than his share of name-calling and hysterical
invective...but even Gene Smith doesn't begin to compare with Jonathan
Szanto for sheer depth of cruelty and breadth of verbal brutality.
Watching Jonathan Szanto rip a microtonal composer apart is like
watching the chainsaw scene in the Al Pacino remake of "Scarface."
It's so horrible you just want to hide your face. You cringe. You
feel nauseous. Vomit rises in your throat. You have to put your head
between your knees...it's like watching a vivisection of a live
animal, or a gang-rape of an infant.
At least Gene is upfront about his verbal attacks. You know when Gene
is coming at you with a meat hook. By contrast, Jonathan Szanto
inhabits a special realm of thuggery, a truly unique pantheon of
loathsomely venomous reptiles whose only joy in life seems to be to
rip others to shreds and tear apart their life's work and with unholy
sadistic glee brutalize and viciously verbally sodomize anyone and
anything that smacks of creativity and imagination and
excellence...all the while pretending to be the victim's best friend
and closest buddy while wreaking his verbal carnage.
We occasionally come across these kinds of human beings, who seem to
have been born with a blank spot where a conscience should be. The
teacher who ridicules a student for stuttering in front of the fifth
grade class and takes unholy glee when the student later commits
suicide... The boss who waits until Christmas eve to fire a pregnant
woman whose husband just left her... The prison guard who watches a
prisoner getting beaten up and then kills the _victim_ of the attack
with a shotgun blast in the chest to stop the fight... (All taken from
newspaper articles; all factual.)
Yes, we've all read about these kind of unspeakable atrocities carried
out by stone-cold sociopaths. But it's seldom we encounter such
specimens of human pathology in actual everyday life.
Study Jonathan Szanto's behavior, ladies and gentlemen, and note it
well. If you ever encounter someone who talks and acts like Jonathan
Szanto on a lonely desert road when your car has broken down...
RUN!
