“It was also a wake up call for me, living in cultures that endorse “instant” information and entertainment, where meanings are spoon-fed and generic… where you try to be what the society wants you to, where you are as good as how much your job pays you. this experience changes my whole view or arts and science and shows me a higher intensity of professionalism. And then there’s Wolfgang Rihm.”

Lana was just one of the amazing people I met at Roche Continents. Here she recognises a great point: The course as a call for a passionate, engaged life. We all can be so much better.
I really must get around to writing my own thoughts on the whole surreal experience, before the memories start to fade.
