De Segunda a um ano é o primeiro e único livro escrito por John Cage publicado no Brasil. Com tradução de Rogério Duprat e Augusto de Campos, trata-se de um mosaico de ideias, citações e histórias, envolvendo artistas como Miró, Duchamp e Rauschenberg, músicos como Schoenberg e Henry Cowell e, ainda, pensadores como Buckminster Fuller e Marshall Mcluhan.
Cage apresenta cada capítulo com uma estrutura particular, dispondo o texto de forma única em sua visualidade, para falar de temas como política, arte, música e poesia, além de seu especial interesse por cogumelos.
Um dos maiores artistas modernos, John Cage (1912-1992) é o inventor do piano preparado (em que objetos introduzidos entre as cordas alteram o som do instrumento), além de ter sido um dos primeiros artistas a fazer um happening, evento que reúne performances simultâneas das mais variadas expressões artísticas.

Read information about the author

Cage is perhaps best known for his 1952 composition 4′33″, the three movements of which are performed without a single note being played. The content of the composition is meant to be perceived as the sounds of the environment that the listeners hear while it is performed, rather than merely as four minutes and thirty three seconds of silence, and the piece became one of the most controversial compositions of the 20th century. Another famous creation of Cage's is the prepared piano (a piano with its sound altered by placing various objects in the strings), for which he wrote numerous dance-related works and a few concert pieces, the best known of which is Sonatas and Interludes (1946–48).
His teachers included Henry Cowell (1933) and Arnold Schoenberg (1933–35), both known for their radical innovations in music and coincidentally their shared love of mushrooms, but Cage's major influences lay in various Eastern cultures. Through his studies of Indian philosophy and Zen Buddhism in the late 1940s, Cage came to the idea of chance-controlled music, which he started composing in 1951. The I Ching, an ancient Chinese classic text on changing events, became Cage's standard composition tool for the rest of his life. In a 1957 lecture, Experimental Music, he described music as "a purposeless play" which is "an affirmation of life – not an attempt to bring order out of chaos nor to suggest improvements in creation, but simply a way of waking up to the very life we're living".
