Two heads inside of one. Yes, we already have that and much more. I'm saying, each head has its own "mind" about its musical role for the hands. If they can jell on different tasks but for one purpose, depth and dimension appear. Like stereo vision, you get something extra. It's a sensation.
Another deep statement, thanks Emmett! (You made my day by noticing a Bach influence in an earlier post)
Even if the ability to truly divert one's attention to 2 or 3 (or 4 or more) simultaneous improvised parts is an impossible thing (anything is possible I think, though), I feel that it's a worthwhile goal to pursue. That's just me, though. Lots of work to be done, practicing and creating... The Stick provides a really unique medium for us to create and explore music.
Anyways, very cool thread.
