It is a structured improvisation, with material from Omni-Nihilum / Newtopia 8.3, inspired by a quote from the Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis who questions the notion of happiness: “We remained silent near the brazier, late at night. I felt again how simple and frugal happiness is: a glass of wine, a chestnut, a miserable stove, the rumor of the sea. Nothing else. And to feel that all this is happiness, all you need is a simple and frugal heart. “Nikos Kazantzakis, from the novel Alexis Zorbas
