If I hear one note or chord or if, for example, I play one on an instrument, I get lit up as if electric shock ribbons instantly race from my ears and fingertips to my imagination and then my creativity and craft play high-speed ping-pong! where the ball is bouncing back and forth 100 times a second.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outcomes are unpredictable to me. I stay absolutely flexible. Everything is malleable, springy, stretchy, coil-able, color-able, twistable, bouncing, zig-zagging, and splinter-able. It feels like I am dancing with contrapuntal flickering sonic lights that accumulate into a spinning pinwheel spawning sound and form. I slide, skate, swivel, and spin with my materials - crafting nuance and finesse - and then I sculpt, shape, chisel, fashion, and form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of all of that, I feel as if the piece wrote me – not as if I wrote the piece! My music has its own inner life. If I listen carefully, the piece I am composing will tell me what it next needs.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nimbus Music Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43561618374735,"sku":"NMP1139","price":14.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/eca93d0e45cc4f32052186a846011fa5.jpg?v=1758313076","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/ar-thomas-enchanted-invocation-nimbus","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
