An invisible particle of light,on a sound pendulum,swinging back and forth,enveloped in the sound of other time-space. Until the gravity brings it to its equilibrium. In front of our eyes.But it is the ears that are seeing it. ▪︎ Live performance of Christopher Fox’s “Other Times, Other Places” by Angharad Davies (violin) & Tom Jackson…

Into the wonderland with the Wanderer(s)
This piece of aural beauty arrived just in time to give that special sprinkle of wonder and make the weekend magical! Because Cassandra Miller‘s CD “O Zomer!”… it is, simply put, pure magic! The process of listening (or, well, my process of listening when purely being in the role of the experiencing-receptor) is almost always:…

Living Madness with MITRA
So… tonight was the dress rehearsal, the pre-premier if one will, of MITRA. And well… [this] had to happen. ‘Cause… so much thoughts and emotions…Enter the madness of other. To understand the madness. Of other. Of self. To understand the fight for the right and justice. While we walked down the narrow yet illuminated path,…
