The inspiration: A story: Tasting the reed, he adjusted his embouchure and started with a few plaintive notes. She appeared, quiet as a dissolving dandelion, her costume in stark contrast to the surroundings. “What were you thinking?” He played. “I need reactions. Blending in is not going to get results.” “And artificially producing them will result in valid data?” She engaged her adopted body to his music. “Everything is valid
