Working together means to resonate together, which in turn, means to unite our respective perceptions of internal time (understood as time flowing materially during the writing process and not as musical time) to a common tone or, at the very least, a consistent synchronization.

In our specific case, it is a question of pushes and energies.

Do we both always have the same perception of the length of one of these writing processes? And if not, what does it actually bring to the overall creativity?

Let's say for example that Sara perceives the writing time as long, tiring and difficult to tune in, while Corrado perceives it as light and flowing. How does this change the creation of the initial material (loop)? And above all, how is it possible to communicate between us states of discomfort and/or fatigue in order to facilitate the virtuous circle of musical creation?

Over the years, we have realised a series of ‘alarm bells’ that lead us both in an unproductive and disconnected mood. Some are purely physical (need for a break or shorter sessions, general tiredness from the day) others are about space (is this the right room? Do we feel comfortable in this space? Can we communicate nimbly?) and others are sound related (do we have everything we need technically?).

All these aspects create common discrepancies in our perceptions of the length of the various creative processes, for they are all highly variable and situational, to which we add the perception of time we have individually when writing.
Does writing together slow us down or speed us up? What happens when we feel that we have to change our compositional rhythm?

We often ask ourselves how to reproduce certain ‘magical’ moments of creativity that we have experienced. Is it the place, the emotional state we were in, the period of life, the ideas explored in that moment? These questions are crucial for us to understand how we can optimise the time we spend together without always having to go through brute-forcing sessions in order to realise something at all costs, due to the time constraints we have to meet (e.g. residencies, travel, etc.).
