Digital Nirvana

What code do we leave for the others? Files? Patches? Description? In the long tradition of musical culture a powerful tradition is interpretation. For interpertation one media has to be translated into another. But very rare this process is going on within the electronic or digital music community. Most of the time the performer is the composer and only she or he knows. So one could span a space from digital nirvana to grave symbols in stone. I’m gliding in that space.
