Postminimal, Post-minimal, Postminimalism, Post-minimalism???!??!? Someone help. Hyacinth

Personally, I see no point in the hyphen, and have never used it. Kylegann 21:02, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
I don't care one way or the other, except that it should be consistent. So I changed them all to postminimalism (just to indulge User:Kylegann ;-) ) and moved the article. —Caesura(t) 21:32, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Postminimalism - That's what I think - yes definitely. Benjaminstewart05 16:37, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

  • hyphens rule!!! The choice is there, but there is a valid semantic reasoning by the use of a hyphen, i use them becuase they make more sense to me as a word with another notional word added, Microsoft, used to be Micro-soft, it's all about choice these days about things that don't really matter, do we choose nuclear weapons, or do we choose what colour t-shirt, we are distracted by the illusions of an arbitrary life, everything is a lie,- only is real by our reasoning? Only death is real? Christmas, Christ-mas.Book M 10:10, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] more Postminimalists?

Shouldn't the recent output of Glass and Reich be considered "postminimalist" by now? I am thinking of works like for example Glass's Concerto for Saxophone Quartet and his more recent Concertos or Reich's City Life, which brings me to Heiner Goebbels and his Surrogate Cities. Another postminimalist? -- megA (talk) 23:11, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
