“Letting a robot structure your argument, or flatten your style by removing the quirky elements, is dangerous. It’s a streamlined way to flatten the human mind, to homogenize human thought. We know who we are, at least in part, by finding the words—messy, imprecise, unexpected—to tell others, and ourselves, how we see the world. The world which no one else sees in exactly that way.”
“The real magic of Zone 2…may turn out to be that it allows you to recover quickly and do it again the next day—and perhaps even enjoy it.”
“And at a moment when more or less any sound, any effect, is already at our digital fingertips, doesn’t the likelihood that any particular new instrument might hold the key to our musical future grow vanishingly small?”
