"It’s [...] it’s [...] like the theory of gravity, the gravita... that we are here... so, improvisation is up or down – in direction [...] This is an example of improvisation – the moment surprises you, but at the point of deciding to go down or up can be very important in the whole spectrum of the thing – it’s kind of like catching something that is in movement – for me this is what improvisation is, the moment of change can be totally important to what comes. … We’re talking about [...] well, I’ll bring water into the discussion, because water is undividable, you can’t divide water, water is one of the elements that you can’t divide, alright air as well, these very important things that benefit us but are totally, these words, what is the word, water is of a consistency but it doesn’t care about our practice of dividing. And I think something happens in music where the connection becomes one, then we’re in the way of water and this would also be another way of saying its anti-gravitational in a certain way [...] When we become one, we are flying together and I think, yes I think music has this, we have made this language I think for some of these reasons – reasons to become one and to float, I would say."
