From a high level, Xenakis is a tribal thinker. In areas of the world where tribal thinking is still dominant, he can likely provide an interesting analysis. Many others have WIERD or blue perspectives. Many will guess a tribal population or leader will do what seems to be rational by western standards, and totally miss the more local tribal thought patterns. At the same time, will Xenakis be able to best analyze WIERD or blue people? As far as I can see, he doesn't even try. He attributes modern thought to being stupid, and projects parody or straw man motivations.
It truly is a matter of using the correct tool for the job.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
