"Anything in our world that moves vibrates air.
If it moves in such a way that it oscillates at more than about 16 times a second this movement is heard as sound.
The world, then, is full of sounds. Listen. Openly attentive to whatever is vibrating, listen. Sit quietly for a moment and receive."
--R. Murray Schafer
