After correspondence with Dr Martin Coath

The journey of thought in the brain, speeding down nerve cells and leaping across spaces drove Lola towards this music Lola is a musician and composer based in London. As part of the "Music Science And The Brain" conference that I co-organised she was commissioned to write a piece for first performance at the lunchtime concert that was part of the conference proceedings.

This began a correspondence between us which gave rise to part of her Piano Suite VI "The Theory Of K". I take no credit for the music (!) but she has invited me to give an introductory talk at a performance of the suite in London in the summer.

We are also working on a more extensive collaboration, an idea called A2B2A.
