“There has always been a dance element in my mysticism.”
Alan Moore (1953) English writer primarily known for his work in comic books
De Abaitua interview (1998)
Context: There has always been a dance element in my mysticism. We just think ‘why not’. Music is imposing a state of consciousness by its very nature. If what this Tree of Life is is a hierarchy of different states of consciousness, would it be possible to simulate and stimulate those states of consciousness in the listener by producing the right sorts of music. Is it possible? We don’t know, but we’re working on it.
Sydney Carter (1915–2004) British musician and poet
Lord of the Dance (1963)
