And so I started thinking and trying to make a kind of music that I thought
would make the airport experience feel
important and special.
And there were quite a lot of technical considerations, like obviously it mustn't interfere with communication,
It mustn't keep stopping and starting.
It must not matter if it gets interrupted.
So on and so on.
So that was a that was a very conscious act of making a making a work of art.
Um but most of what I do isn't really motivated by such high high-sounding ideas.
Most of the time I'm fiddling around and something starts to happen.
Something
intrigues me or some feeling starts to happen, I think, I like that feeling.
How can I bring that forward?
How how can I make more of it?
And I often don't know why I'm doing that or how it will end up.
I have an archive of about 11,000 unfinished pieces of music.
And what I do occasionally is pull one of those out.
And suddenly I haven't seen it for fifteen years.
I think it's more contemplative.
I think it makes you relax into the situation that you're in, whatever that happens to be, presumably in an airport in this case, rather than tries to pretend that you're not in that place.
