Please send one of the next text packages (a short symphony) to Herbie Hancock. See if he can improvise from on our asemics.

Herbie Hancock, having learned from Miles Davis, would find our works everything but asemic. He would find them raphesemic,
or ecdysiasemic. Chromatic subjectivities expressed as chromatic realities.
Hancock: What I realize now is that Miles didn’t hear it as a mistake. He heard it as something that happened. As an event.
And so that was part of the reality of what was happening at that moment. And he dealt with it…. Since he didn’t hear it
as a mistake, he thought it was his responsibility to find something that fit.
I walked into a record store on March 30, 1973 and heard music that sounded like something from another planet, indisputable
evidence that "another world is possible". It was Hornets, from Sextant. I bought it on the spot. I had just turned 17. I felt
very grateful for Herbie Hancock's willingness to exist.
