As Artists, I Think That One Of

My Partner Sometimes Liked To Go Into The Studio And Improvise Voice Things Just For Fun. When I Returned From England I Transcribed One Of Her Melodies, And Had Some Of The Hospice Participants Sing It, Because They Said They Liked To Sing. Their Singing Is Very Raw, But I'm Going To Use It For The Final Work.

Yes, The More I Go Through Life I Realize That There's Really No Separation Between Practice And Art At All. The Two Things More And More Become One Rather Than Two Different Aspects Of My Life.

Sometimes In The Past When I Was Going To Perform A Piece Again I Would Listen To Old Recordings And Try To Reproduce The Material. This Time I Realized That Carrying Around Old Information, Trying To Get Everything In, And Still Be In The Moment Just Doesn't Work.

Curiosity Is A Great Antidote To Fear.

I Think About That "empty" Space A Lot. That Emptiness Is What Allows For Something To Actually Evolve In A Natural Way. I've Had To Learn That Over The Years - Because One Of The Traps Of Being An Artist Is To Always Want To Be Creating, Always Wanting To Produce.
