Being full-size artist, attended in early age of 5, I tend to be crazy. Being a scientist, I tend to be too much logical. That two wings need to be controled, well harnessed and managed to fly. The same way as a bird catch wind streams, I catch ideas, colors, sounds. It needs to be very stable at the centre to rule all of it. Not an easy thing.

It can`t be achieved by simple pressure or another partial strategy.

It needs to be flown as sounds of Shakuhachi fluite en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakuhachi which came from China to Japan with Buddhism. (Unfortunately, I am not able to learn it by myself, but I enjoy it by records and live concerts.)

That pictures was taken from one of them, in Tea Club. The person with Shakuhachi is the fluite master who did for me my Bansuri fluite.

He plays classical Shakuhachi music, both ancient and modern, wrote by monks, performed y many people who are close to Buddhism, in many places from markets to concert stages.

That music, with lots of sounds of nature, sometimes arhitmic, sometimes so transparent so it barely listened, this is one of the best illustration of natural growth of ideas.

 I saw the strange metal instrument the first time. It sounds like very fine melody of space and rain, strange combination of self-resonance and clapping. Gentle and clear it fulfills all the space of the club, and I can remember it as clear as it is performing right now. Amazing. It flows me away of my concentration on neessity results. Sometimes I can forget it. Such music is like a fresh shower for my mind, forced to be too much attached to make every detail of the big plan in time.

Thanks to the performers who got us such a pleasure.

The master of fluites is my friend www.facebook.com/Bambutsu who is constantly posting his new fluites and records with his music, welcome to listen it, welcome to touch, welcome to try.
