school...We are not familiar with their didactic works. Perhaps they don't
have any." - Erik Satie

NADA BRAHMA - Sanskrit, "sound [is the] Godhead"
LILA - Sanskrit, "divine play/sport/whimsy" - "the universe is what happens
when God wants to play" - "joyous exercise of spontaneity involved in the art
of creation"

than a free improvisation. - Derek Bailey
