Space allows melodic relationships that are simply sensual as they pervade my being, and tingle the spine.  The piece proceeds toward it&#8217;s intended future in a general way, but the journey is immediate, insistent, urgently counterpointed.  I drift into thoughts of how I would play this part, how my fingers would tickle the keys into this funky dip, touch this dissonant note, and transition into full syncopated melodic counterpoint.  I love my version existing in the listening space alongside of my imagined place.  My foot can&#8217;t keep still, my head bobs in sync with the beat, I AM the beat in space, returning on point, insistent, willful.  I am vital and alive, blissful and at home in my element.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6but then I remember I haven&#8217;t played the piano in thirty years.  I realize the only place I can is in <em>minds-eye<\/em> listening to another&#8217;s genius.  My experience of this funky jazz masterpiece of rhythm and blues where the bliss of what is, and the joy of what might be move in time, and I see I am that movement&#8230;I am time, and its knowing space.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSK Ex. 18 and 19, you will become more aware of how references to the past and future locate your present experience\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 will help to develop an increased awareness of the structure of ordinary time.
