    You're not alone. There isn't even a decent working definition of what "jazz" is :(

    "...
    critic Joachim-Ernst Berendt argues that its terms of reference and its definition should be broader, defining jazz as a "form of art music which originated in the United States through the confrontation of the Negro with European music" and arguing that it differs from European music in that jazz has a "special relationship to time defined as 'swing'", involves "a spontaneity and vitality of musical production in which improvisation plays a role" and contains a "sonority and manner of phrasing which mirror the individuality of the performing jazz musician". In the opinion of Robert Christgau, "most of us would say that inventing meaning while letting loose is the essence and promise of jazz."

    A broader definition that encompasses all of the radically different eras of jazz has been proposed by Travis Jackson: "it is music that includes qualities such as swing, improvising, group interaction, developing an 'individual voice', and being open to different musical possibilities". Krin Gibbard has provided an overview of the discussion on definitions, arguing that "jazz is a construct" that, while artificial, still is useful to designate "a number of musics with enough in common to be understood as part of a coherent tradition". In contrast to the efforts of commentators and enthusiasts of certain types of jazz, who have argued for narrower definitions that exclude other types, the musicians themselves are often reluctant to define the music they play. As Duke Ellington, one of jazz's most famous figures, said: "It's all music"." -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz#Etymology_and_definition

    TL;DR: :dunno:

    I confabulated with Mr. director about his temporarily leaving with pay but unfortunately couldn't draw the director's willingness and obliged to endure those painful and repetitive sounds till the final episode.:rofl:

    Oh yeah, @foster911 I subtitled my track "jazz is the end of randomness", in honor of that topic you did. I did promise to use it as a song title, after all! Seemed like too much of a coincidence to pass up...

    Jazz has.. th-theory nao? *trembles* OMG i guess i've always been doing it wrong =O just klunking randomly away as per :D

    Also: it wouldn't be an audiosex album w/o @Andrew ! (Jazz is as complicated as ya wanna make it, rly. Like all genres.)

    Err. Ima pretty much finished nao @Olymoon. Maybe 2.. days? =) Who / where / why / what do i send it to? I expect ima spend rest of time fiddling w/ it & making it sound worse, like @Beth said. The bar has been set pretty low by me already tho! XD

    About timing, as I'd like to keep all members that want to participate until now, and there are at least 4 that asked for 2 month.
    We will do it with 2 month.
    So delivery date for tracks is 3 marsh.

    The ones that are ready before can deliver before...

    About format: For me it's not "that" important, but we can discuss it of you will.

    I would simply deliver as mp3.

    My question was more about the copyright of the participants in this.

    I think we should be a little more specific on the delivery format, like was done for the Xmas album. Someone will need to at least do some "mastering" to get the levels consistent. :yes:

    Then I dont understand your question, as I believe that everyone that share his music here is aware that it will be public.
    I dont have a way to protect this album anyway.

    I think it's best to dedicate it to the whole community and not any one person :winker:
