One of the finest drummers in the world, Jazz at Lincoln Center's Ali Jackson stepped within the rhythmic embrace of Enso 2007. And for a moment the Enso spun within the curves of the metaphorical golden cymbals of Ali Jackson. The Enso resembled a drum, a note, an ideation, and kept shifting "across the bar" of logic. Jackson had a particular understanding of the rhythmic complexity of the textures within the stroke.

In an in depth call and response we talked about the beginning and end of the brush stroke which are the closest together and yet the furthest apart. Jackson was struck by how the Enso visually represented to him the beauty of the tension in the major 7 and flat 9. Then we discussed these intervals and the Enso in "different registers."
