"...I feel music should not be well ILLUSTRATED but rather Music should be IMPLIED..."

"...That is why I do not appreciate when sound acts as a very high resolution painting with superb details, painted by a microscopic brush by a very skilled painter. I would rather prefer a painter have a lot of attitude and paint his INTENTIONS with a very large brush, setting his/her references to own objectives..."


Marc Chagall (aka : מאַרק שאַגאַל , Марк Захаравiч Шагал)
(A 20th century Jewish/Belarus-born painter, who moved to Paris) wrote :
"...One cannot be precise, and still be true..."

John Updike wrote :
"...Truth should not be forced, it should simply manifest itself..."

Emily Dickenson wrote :
"...The truth must dazzle gradually/Or every man be blind..."

And, with regard to the concept of "Abstract Audio"...

Vincent Van Gogh wrote :
"...My great longing is to make those very incorrectnesses, those deviations, remodellings, changes in reality, so that they may become, yes, lies if you like - but lies more true than the literal truth..."

Pablo Picasso later appropriated the above concept for himself (what a surprise!), reducing it to the following comparatively crude jingle :
"...Art is a lie that tells the truth..."
