“Imitation is an existential mistake. So, to escape from the trivial cycle of
relationships in music, the musician, the artist, must be absolutely independent,
which means absolutely alone.”
— Xenakis
It appears empty, until it moves.
The inimitable Ed Pinsent has reviewed my rapidly aging Xenolith CD at The Sound Projector, having already featured an extended excerpt (with commentary) on his Resonance FM radio show of 13th October last (Friday, naturally).

“Nobilissima Viriditas, quae radicas in sole,
et quae in candida serenitate luces in rota,
quam nulla terrena excellentia comprehendit,
tu circumdata es amplexibus divinorum mysteriorum.
Tu rubes ut aurora et ardes ut sotis flamma!”
