"Probably the most beautiful thing you’ll
hear in a long while. Beauty all around us, it just needs the right
people to tweak it. I’ve nothing else to add with my clumsy words: just
go, follow the link and take five minutes; take a break and really listen to it."

Tom Waits (on Robert Wilson): “Wilson,
he’s always playing with time. I heard a recording recently of crickets
slowed way down. It sounds like a choir, it sounds like angel music.
Something sparkling, celestial with full harmony and bass parts – you
wouldn’t believe it. It’s like a sweeping chorus of heaven, and it’s
just slowed down, they didn’t manipulate the tape at all. So I think
when Wilson slows people down, it gives you a chance to watch them
moving through space. And there’s something to be said for slowing down
the world.”
