Rules of Play

1) you shall investigate the unfamiliar until it has become familiar

2) you shall impose rhythmic repetition on the familiar

3) you shall vary this repetition in as many ways as possible

4) you shall select the most satisfying of these variations and develop these at the expense of the others

5) you shall combine and recombine these variations one with another

6) you shall do this for its own sake for an end in itself

(Evan Parker quoting Desmond Morris in the original liner notes to 'The Topography of the Lungs')
