Cheltenham Improvisers Orchestra: Poppyseeds (Workshop)

Cheltenham Improvisers Orchestra perform a workshop piece titled Poppyseeds devised by Chris Cundy.
This piece was inspired by Point And Line To Plane, Wassily Kandinsky's influential writings about science and art which gives the example of poppy seeds to illustrate a self contained, centrifugal view of the cosmos. Kandinsky states: "...the whole 'world' can be looked upon as a self-contained cosmic composition which, in turn, is composed of an endless number of independent compositions, always self-contained even when getting smaller and smaller." [ Kandinsky 1914 pp38]
