<DIV CLASS="_1mf _1mj"><SPAN>"I start most of my work by listening and moving to music, I can also read music so if I have written score I will learn to follow it as I hear and see it on the page. I also make paintings. It's in these actions that I begin to make sense of what I might be trying to say, essentially I am looking for "something" by playing with ideas in time and space. I find music opens up my brain to all kinds pictorial thoughts, atmospheres, manners, attitudes, memories and feelings both from my body and my mind. I tend to listen to several different pieces of music usually along a chosen theme or musical direction e.g. choral works, new music, string sounds lately Japanese or Polynesian drumming. I am trying to go beyond the ideas and move towards another place where my Embodied Knowledge is informing me of a key direction."</SPAN></DIV>
