"Children like to be silly. Secretly, adults like to be silly too. Here's a space to be silly, with the children." (David Toop)

“Imagine allowing kids aged 3-6 do whatever they please inside a room of synthesizers, drum machines, Theremins, and uncovered turntables (loaded with their parents' records), and then recording the results. Maybe a rhythm could arise for a few seconds with a couple of thwacks here and there, and then there could be the violent, keyboard zigzags produced by fingers stuck in curious mouths. Perhaps, a renaissance in "chance music" could be realized.” (Cameron Macdonald, Pitchfork Media)
