A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
创造
Creation
A jazz performance centers upon the process of creation. The final objective is not only the finished product, but the path and process taken towards it.
爵士乐的表演以创作过程为中心。最终的目标不仅是最终的产品，而且是通往它的道路和过程。
Plays are so much more special if they've never ever had a production, but I think you can really work on a play and make it better with each production.

I had a big background in listening to classical music and I started trying to compose, like I was playing the guitar but I heard an orchestra in my head.
我有听古典音乐的大背景，我开始尝试作曲，就像我在弹吉他，但我听到了一个管弦乐队在我的脑海里。

我认为大多数艺术家是出于绝望而创作的。创造的本质并不是外在的荣耀，而是内心痛苦、艰难的探索。
But the approach to recording this album was kind of an organized, chaotic approach where I wanted to maintain and preserve that wild abandon to creating.

I really don't have a theme when I start a sculpture. The rock guides me to the final sculpture. I think that is true for many creative sculpture artists.

For me it's also - the music is equally as important. I mean I think as somebody who writes music, there just has to sort of be the marriage between both.
对我来说，音乐也同样重要。我的意思是，我认为作为一个写音乐的人，两者之间必须有某种联姻。
I really worked to try and be creative enough on the guitar parts so those who aren't real educated would know that there was some difficulty in doing it.

The first stone was just tried in the spirit of experimentation. The opening of the stone was far more interesting than the drawing that I had done on it.

When we started the band, it was because we were waiting for a sound that never happened. We got tired of waiting, and we decided to just do it ourselves.
