The tape was dumped into the computer and the sessions went on a hard drive you can fit in the pocket of your jeans and I mixed the recordings on my laptop while on tour with Japanese Breakfast the following month.

The waves of intention and risk and adventure that have been surfed by musical improvisation go back far, far, far, far, far in time. As modern bodies on a modern planet spinning in ancient space, we're constantly reckoning with what was and what could be. By actively improvising and meeting each other on that forgiving plane, we can peek into new vantages and obtain new perspectives. We can feel challenged and poised. We can feel dread. But we'll be damned if it isn't all felt in real time, ancient approaches adding extra calcium to our bones, future questions answering themselves with newer questions.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eTo me, a sentient work in progress, I feel that improvisation is such a damn gift.
