Now there is inspiration, such creativity. Layers of sound blend to make extraordinary music. Phrases appear with wonderful textures of voice, violin and piano (and various other instruments.). It's so new, so original. It felt a bit strange the first time I heard his music but as I get to know it, I discover more. He stretches his imagination and what an imagination. I have never seen a musician sing into the body of a violin to get the sound quality he wanted. Amazing. In one piece in particular I had the feeling that wonderful sounds and phrases were drifting past me. I couldn't quite capture the entire idea of any  single one. I was overwhelmed by the depth and richness of the music.

So how can I apply this to my photography. He has identified his vision and honed it. He is obviously very well trained technically but has moved way, way past it to soar. The layering of sound was compelling. Layering images. He is so brave . It's more than a little scary to create something so original.
