Case Study: Didjeridu Relieves Arthritis Pain
Dave Knott

"I imagined my breath becoming tone through the didjeridu and resonating... I imagined this breath tone pushing the arthritis out of her arm."

Quantum Improvisation: The Cybernetic Presence
Pauline Oliveros

" What is conscious improvisation? For that matter what is unconscious improvisation? The body knows what to do even if the small mind does not comprehend. The body 'dances' the music - the nerves fire and the mind notices slightly after it happens." from deeplistening.org

Jon Rose

"In the beginning there was radio and it was all live. Then there was recording. Then slowly more and more radio became pre-recorded... cleaner, safer... but the edge started to go off it. " from jonroseweb.com

Jack Wright

"If we try to calculate the good effect and then duplicate it, build a career on it, then Theater of the Moment will run from it in horror and take up new lodgings. It would be better that al spectators be imaginary than that we manipulate their assent for our gratification."
