"Silence is a state of no consciousness: if we perceive, we are alive, however tiny the event. Perhaps that is why I strive to find significance through sound and movements that operate on the threshold of perception, offering an elusive, dream-like world which for me is vital and close to the state of life itself. Nature is full of such events. We sometimes think of it as being slow, but we're missing it all the time. It's very, very fast." (Max Eastley)
