I think that the human mind is fascinating and it's ability to improvise or see things that aren't there is incredible. A few months ago I found a video recording of an NPR interview where Hauschka (a German musician) was asked to create a prepared piano out of the "random gifts" he received from his interviewer's office. What he is able to create with what he is given is crazy! It is so interesting to see what his mind can come up with and see what sounds good together. Also the fact that simple objects can so drastically change the sound of an instrument is pretty cool. By the end of all of his tweaking he has created an entire band out of a simple piano.
Well enough of me talking about it. Here is the video...
