Quotation

"The danger is great of letting oneself be trapped by the tools and of becoming stuck in the sands of technology that has come like an intruder into the relatively calm waters of the thought in instrumental music."

Xenakis, I. 1985. "Music Composition Treks." In Composers and the Computer. C. Roads, ed. Los Altos: William Kaufmann, Inc. {amazon}
