Conjured by Chance
Dice Roll Composition Series
In the Space Between
We often open moments in the quiet of the afternoon to explore and listen. Our children find themselves in spaces of contemplation, sunlight, and wandering within their mind and being. Today, I happened to step to the keys and roll the dice. The sequence that presented was a simple one, good for expanding the spaces between.
They are present. They are absorbing. The shapes form. They integrate.
- This is organic acquisition of music, fluently.
This session is unedited and exploratory. It is sensed, not thought. My fingers feel for spaces they wish to inhabit, not a form they have rehearsed.
- The idea of this series isn’t necessarily to create fully produced material, it is to play. The dice offer their shape, the frequencies offer their cadence, and the rest just sort of shows up when we set the energy into motion.
A spontaneous conducting of my favorite type of puzzle, conceived by chance, and the roll of intent.
