Mixing of old and new 'visual music' artists / historical context.

This page needs a clearer statement on the historical context of visual music. For example, at the top of the page we have this statement:

"Filmmakers working in this latter tradition include Oskar Fischinger (Ornament Sound Experiments), Norman McLaren, Barry Spinello, Steven Woloshen, Max Hattler, Richard Reeves and other contemporary artists."

The way this statement muddles up pioneers of visual music such as Oskar Fischinger and Norman McLaren with contemporary artists such as Max Hattler seemed a bit disingenuous to me. I think it might be better to remove the contemporary artists, as the opening of this page ought to focus on the pioneers of visual music from the mid-20th Century, in order to clearly situate the movement in a historical context. Ideally there should be a sub-section towards the end of the page dedicated to contemporary artists such as Hattler, who have continued to explore the aesthetic priorities of visual music in a digital context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.249.97.251 (talk) 14:10, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

external links

why are you removing useful external links?

The article is full of much irrelevant info, such as old media player programs. The list of further readings contains numerous unrelated or not useful texts (e.g. Kemp is excellent but doesn’t belong here). Yet useful external links have been removed. Why? Most were not spam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C52:427F:C9B9:B124:FBAD:39:52E (talk) 04:22, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

The centerforvisualmusic has been repeatedly added by several accounts and IP addresses, on several different articles. It is not an acceptable link for Wikipedia, especially since all these additions appear to come from people associated with the center. If this keeps up it may be placed on Wikipedia's spam blacklist, preventing the link from being added by anyone. - MrOllie (talk) 00:39, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
