NON-LINEAR STATE No. 044: NARROW FRAMES

 

“My freedom thus consists in my moving about within the narrow frame that I have assigned to myself for each one of my undertakings. I shall go even further: my freedom will be so much the greater and more meaningful  the more narrowly I limit my field of action and the more I surround myself with obstacles. Whatever diminishes constraint diminishes strength. The more obstacles one imposes, the more one frees oneself of the claims that shackle the spirit.”

-Igor Stravinsky, Poetics of Music in the Form of Six Lessons-

(via Federico Urdaneta’s desk in London)
