experimental block

I would also simply add

Listen to a few Brian Eno CD (like 'Nerve Net')

If you have a guitar, change completely the tuning in order
to be completely unable to rely on your routine playing.

Start work with constraint:
        Anything would work: No bass drum. E is a forbidden
note. Never have more than 4 bars in the same time
signature.

Most of those things won't make music. They are more of a
kind of mind exercices. That can lead somewhere.

You can also go to d/l the Eno's "Oblique Strategies" deck
ccards (funny no one mentioned it) after all that was why
they were done.

And  agood thing is to work and NEVER record anything. No
security allowed. Just rely on your (distorted by your
feelings at best) memory to make the piece go on.
Too much back ups of anything kills us.
