	Silence as Discourse
		In treating silence as gendered, I will argue that silence must be as heavily gendered as voice is gendered in the use of language; the implication being that silence and speech can have a different weight, meaning or value depending on whether it is a woman or a man who is speaking or silent.
		The notion that silence may be a form of discourse, then, derives its substance from the use of the definitions of discourse and silence and from Foucault's discussion of the transformation of sex into discourse.
		The gendering of Eve's silence is crucial to the interpretation of this passage from a feminist view point; Eve's voice is given relatively little importance as her narrative's substance relates to the importance of the Father's Word.

		Silence, then can be defined as: the fact of abstaining or forebearing from speech or utterance -- that is: muteness, reticence, taciturnity; the state or condition when nothing is audible; the omission of mention, remark, or notice in narration; and the failure to communicate or reply in speech or narration.
		Silence as a form of discourse, then, derives its substance from the use of the definitions of discourse and silence and from Michel Foucault's discussion of the transformation of sex into discourse.
		We can see that silence as a form of discourse is as difficult aconcept as intertextuality is for Nyquist; the boundaries of human speech are nearly endless, and so the boundaries of silence can also be appreciated as vast and unapproachable in their "undefined discursive space", a term Nyquist uses in reference to intertextuality.

		Silence here is an isotopical presence.(8) Lisa Block de Behar understands that a rhetoric of silence is inherently a contradiction, but she also explains that it refers to a set of dialectical speculations that help writers to avoid the automatization of language.
		However, silence is of no use if the reader is not aware that there is something to be done with it, that he or she should read beyond and interpret this apparent gap in words or ideas.
		This silence is reciprocal and at the end it contributes to the destruction of their relationship: "Martha closed her eyes and didn't say another word to me, not even good-bye" (42).

		Stirs the silence, vibrates the atmosphere to create a structure that hangs in the air and then evaporates...
		While drawing on both the classical and modem traditions of Mime and Movement, Structures on Silence pushes in ne directions, presenting ideas in ways one may not have thought possible.

	Roach, Steve - Structures from silence - Groove Unlimited
		Structures from Silence is a living example of the true healing quality that music can hold.
		What sets it aside from his other works is the use of harmonic structures, there's even room for melody something that Roach rarely uses in his composition method, maybe that's the reason why he likes to be called a "sound sculptor", like Brian Eno himself likes to be called "non musician".
		Structures is American music response to the ambient music scene, not only Eno but some german musicians too.

		More time, Steve Roach's Structures From Silence is right up there with Brian Eno's "Music for Airports," and deservedly so.
		Originally released in 1984, Structures From Silence was deemed a classic almost immediately, but the contrast grew greater as Roach's output did, and the sheer beauty and clarity of this recording became more clear with time; then the album became a bit of a legend after it went out of print.
		Structures From Silence 2001 has also been re-mastered for better sound quality, thus creating an even more evocative atmospheric listening experience.

	Avantgarde Music. Steve Roach: biography, discography, reviews, links
		Approfittando del carisma ormai acquisito, Roach indulge poi in un'ora intera di improvvisazione elettronica, To The Threshold Of Silence.
		In questo bagno catartico al confine fra musica cosmica (stile descrittivo, cinematico e fortemente cromatico) e musica ambientale (figure melodiche in lentissima evoluzione, stasi, derive infinite, timbri iridescenti) Roach sfodera le sue doti di regista di documentari sonori privi di svolgimento drammatico.
		Il secondo parametro di richiamo potrebbe essere Structures from Silence, ma allora l’andirivieni tematico degli accordi non è più fatto di silenzi, ma delle risposte emotive dell’ascoltatore; forse è proprio su questo che punta ora maggiormente Roach.

	Structures From Silence (by Matt Borghi)
		Heralded by many as one of the finest Ambient works of all time, Steve Roach's STRUCTURES FROM SILENCE is right up there with Brian Eno's MUSIC FOR AIRPORTS and deservedly so.
		Originally released in 1984, STRUCTURES FROM SILENCE was deemed a classic almost immediately, but the contrast grew greater as Roach's output did, and the sheer beauty and clarity of this recording became more clear with time; then STRUCTURES FROM SILENCE became a bit of a legend after it went out of print.
		Generating an abundance of listener feedback via cards and letters long before the dawn of e-mail, STRUCTURES FROM SILENCE is a breakthrough release that serves as a living example of the true healing quality that music can hold.

		The altered chromatin structure is correlated with the post-translational modifications of histones.

		Thus, chromatin is a remarkably dynamic material; structures formed to prevent gene expression can be remodeled to enable expression in response to cellular signals during growth and development.
		The basic unit of chromatin structure is the nucleosome, which consists of a "bead" composed of eight histone proteins, around which 147 base pairs of DNA are wrapped.
		We are also collaborating with Eva Nogales (HHMI, University of California, Berkeley) on the EM structure of the entire RSC complex, with Christopher Hill (University of Utah) on the structure of the DNA translocase engine, and Carlos Bustamante (HHMI, UC Berkeley) on single-molecule analysis of RSC translocation on nucleosomes.

		Many more folks than yoga practitioners love this album; in fact, it's one of Steve Roach's top three best-selling albums from his entire career (over the course of which he has released literally dozens of albums).
		Structures ends with the almost thirty minute long title track.
		As you immerse yourself deeper and deeper in the track, you experience a slight sense of falling, only to be buoyed up again by the warm, drifting synths, which all too soon return you to the silence of which you and they are made.

	Patricia Laurence - The Reading of Silence: Virginia Woolf in the English Tradition (Stanford University Press, 1992)
		The author shows how Woolf challenges this notion and extends the genre of the novel by valuing and representing the inner lives of women, in particular, through a lexicon of silence, a punctuation of suspension, and metaphors and structures of silence.
		She examines silence as a ritual of truth for women in novels by Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte, and as "absence" in a sample of male novelists--Samuel Richardson, Charles Dickens, George Meredith and Thomas Hardy.
		In contrast, the author presents silence as a cultural and narrative space in which women observe, think, dream, resist: a vital space that we as readers are learning to read.

		On the one hand, she was interested in his techniques, his belief that transformations of linguistic structures would alter mental structures, and his awareness of ideological and political manipulations through language.
		She shows how these writers' dialectical structures enclose women in a "limited economy" and an exchange dominated by a desire for death.
		To this, she opposes a desire for alterity, by which, through a journeying toward the other, through a process of identification without fusion, the self goes as far as possible toward the other, lets herself be altered by the other, yet does not become the other.

		In the same breath that they mentiond succumbing to a growing backlash against synthesizer music in favor of acoustic sounds, several teachers cited this purely electronic recording from 1984 as a classic soundtrack for yoga practice.
		Trying to discern any intrinsic emotional content in the great swells of sound or calculate the mathematical relationships between notes would be like trying to psychoanalyze the sea or count its individual drops of water.
		Roach's three meditative compositions — "Quiet Friend," "Structures from Silence," and "Reflections in Suspension" — transcend typical musical standards and set their own requirements for deep listening.

		It's mysterious, graceful and beautifully understated and arguably the finest meditative record of the 1980's, appearing at a time when much American synthesiser music was selling out to the spiritless, saccharine strains of new age.
		Quiet Music, although never quite reaching the sublime heights of Structures For Silence, is cut from the same cloth and is also a must-have.
		Although it was specifically commissioned by outside sources for relaxation, healing and clinical use, the quality of the music remains mostly uncompromised by this potentially limiting premise.

		Although they briefly discussed the structure of each concert, the magic came alive without formal preparation, relying on their mutual passion and instinct for sound.
		The cornerstone is the epic piece, 'To the Threshold of Silence,' a 60-minute tour-de-force that draws the listener from the quiet of inner space to the far reaches of the universe.
		It is a return to silence, and the magic lies in where the listener finds oneself when it ends.

		More than 15 years have passed since Steve Roach first created Structures from Silence, fueled by deep immersions in the musical process, meditative quietness and Blue Pearl-Classic Champa incense.
		Glowing, variously-layered patterns of gentle ebb-and-flow wash through the extended panorama of amorphous Structures from Silence (28:33) like vast tonal in- and exhalations.
		To the less-attuned listener, Structures from Silence may seem to not be "doing" much, but for the pure ambient floatationist, 9.3 worlds of wonder will open (again, or for the first time).

		Steve Roach's stature in the genre known as "ambient spacemusic," one which he had a large part in founding, is now such that most fans of his music just want to know what rough subcategory any new release falls under and whether it is one of his many inspired landmarks in the field.
		For those fans there are two answers; this is an extended series of "atmospheric soundworlds," with a fond look back to the days of Structures From Silence for all his old fans.
		Many of the pieces on disc 2 slip the tethers of ordinary pitch and are better described as "soundscapes" but are no less interesting.
