When making music telepathically, each musician is alone in his or her rooms to improvise with the other musicians in isolation. No musician can hear or see the other player. Thanks to a synchronized signal, each individual musician starts the audio recording in their own rooms and plays for 40-50 minutes, depending on their musical perception. Afterwards, the individual audio recordings are stopped and sent to the studio. The tracks of the individual musicians are synchronized exactly with the time code. The sound engineer only makes an effort to balance the volume. Only then does the music of the entire ensemble emerge as a unified work and become an audible experience.
Thanks to recording technology, the music of a telepathic ensemble is heard for the first time in the world.

In the term improvised music, i no longer find the meanings that made it a recognizable musical category. Improvisation comes from sudden and indicates an unexpected situation. I am convinced that the musician who improvises and composes in the moment is in the intuitive flow, hears in advance and therefore is no longer unexpected. I think that today in the twenty-first century we are at the beginning of a new era where awareness will be a fundamental necessity and therefore also music will reflect this need. 
Music in the present: the present (from the Latin "presum" pre = in front, in advance // sum = are, to be) to be in front, to be in advance.
Music that is created inside the present is a music that is born in front of us in the moment that becomes music. The present it’s to feel before, hear in advance. The musician feels, hear the music before it materializes,
I would call this anticipated perception, intuition, which always comes a moment before, the rationality translated into a form.
Music that makes pre-rational experiences audible and because of this goal, 
eludes a classification in traditional categories.
Music in the present is released from the bonds of the past and does not fall into future expectations, a music of the here and now, which is always new, thanks to the rain of intuition on the humus of personal experiences.
Music in the present can also be played in the group, provided that all members are in a state of awareness with the inner ear, in a state of collective understanding, in a form of compositional telepathy. In the collective, each member is at the same time interpreter, arranger and composer. Larger the group, more difficult the task of establishing this intuitive harmony.
