I visited the Broad during my first visit to the US in the summer of 2018; this time frame marks the beginning and first inspirational period for \u201eCreating Meaning.\u201c While in California, I stayed in Anaheim, where I first drafted my ideas that eventually became 4-5 pieces. All of these compositions have since been omitted from the series, except for one, \u200bPart 1. \u200bNevertheless, the discarded pieces were important and necessary to build the structure of the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The title is open for interpretation. Generally speaking, it deals with the questions: To what extent does one need or want to assign meaning to a work of art? How does one achieve a satisfactory product? How does one continue after that point? These questions relate to finding one\u2019s own identity, as an artist. What is the standard? Does the standard even exist and is it attainable? And if so, what is the value of comparison to other people and other art?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This series does not seek to be categorized. The term \u201egenre\u201c is rejected because knowledge of this label often biases a listener\u2019s first encounter with the art. When the music stands alone, this encourages consumption and absorption of the art in a different way. It should not be boxed into a category or role that could create an assumption before the viewer\u2019s initial experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My creative process was strongly influenced by everyday life. Experiences, persons, objects, states, the good, the bad. A majority of the events, visuals, sounds, experiences of everyday go unnoticed. Things that seem normal\u200b can, under a magnifying glass, unfold differently, perhaps with beauty, perhaps with uniqueness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fabian Dudek Quartet Fabian Dudek &#8211; Reeds, CompositionFelix Hauptmann&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Piano, SynthesizerDavid Helm&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;BassFabian Arends&nbsp;&#8211; Drums ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ This Every Place (feat.
