Band Members: "Every composer should be locked in, but in a comfortable way of course...they're allowed to entertain friends, to have women and beverages,
everything they like. But they shouldn't be let loose, so that they could corrupt music, by living in an obtuse way and by having the stupid habit of having photographs made of themselves and showing themselves with their blunt noses. Of course, not every nose is blunt. There are intelligent, shy and insistent noses as well." - Giacinto Scelsi
