Within the context of Western music, jazz has always contained certain radical or revolutionary aspects. These are: improvisation, collective composition and individuality or the personal sound (based on amazing variations in sonority, timbre and pitch).

We've been able to record the music of cultures that did not have recording, and thus preserve it. But there is also a negative aspect to this and that is the effect of the intrusion of the West on such cultures.

Sometimes you talk to people who really don't know anything about your work, and what can you say?

I do a lot of challenges I run marathons and stuff like that and I like to challenge myself.

I do consider the individual things individual, in a way because that is what I do I guess, try to find out what is special about each medium.

I don't watch a lot of reality TV.

When you narrow down your range and are looking through just that narrow aperture of the lens, the intensity of what you see is so much greater.
