about

“Visualize, for a moment, sand dunes. And notice, when you look at these sand dunes in your mind, that they look like wind. Sand dunes look like wind in some sense. Well, then analyze the situation. What is wind? Wind is a pressure variant phenomena that fluctuates over time. In a way, the sand grains moved about by the wind are like a lower dimensional slice of the wind itself. And from photographic analysis of dunes, you can calculate the speed and duration of the wind that made them. So, the dune is a lower dimensional slice of time, of the wind, ebbing and flowing, that made it. Well now, let’s change the metaphor a little bit. Instead of grains of sand, let’s think of genes. Instead of a windstorm, let’s think of a billion years of evolution. It moves the genes around in a pattern which is a lower dimensional slice of the force which created the situation. In other words, on every living organism, there is the imprint of the higher dimensional force which made it.” -Terrence McKenna, October 1998

Where the ocean meets the land
Sound animates science.
The genesis of a technique
From one comes two
And from two
A multitude of representations
Bears the fruit of possibility.

This recording is the result of a daily practice of improvising at the beach, listening to the sound of the wind, the rhythm of the waves. This is a new way to play the saxophone.
