“During a sunny afternoon foray spent gamboling along the thresholds of the fusion frequency, I discovered ways to bring all properties under a single control in order to create a total serialism of the mind, a psychophysiological gesamtkunstwerk in which the fabric of time is rolled up like a rug, cut into sections, taken out of doors to be cleaned slice by slice, then reassembled, seamlessly blanketing the surface of our conscious reality.” – Karlheinz Stockhausen.
