from Damo's website :

"What is the Network?

Damo Suzuki's Network is an assembly of musicians. It's a collective meeting place where like minded people go...The goal is
simple, for musicians to communicate with each other and with the audience. There are no ego's involved. Musicians send
smoke signals to each other. They respond in kind. Damo selects musicians who have the potential to communicate freely
and who are able to respond honestly to each other in the here and now. This also involves a respect for and dynamic
communication with the audience. Both Damo and Can refer to this process as Instant Composing. Each concert is a unique
event. There are never any rehearsals. Mistakes are moments of opportunity. For the musician, this process is in equal
parts exciting and terrifying. I remember those joyous words that introduced the sixties cartoon series Stingray, " Anything
can happen in the next half hour." For Damo, the half hour may well be two or four hours but the same principle holds true.
Anything can happen...

As Damo says, " I like every concert. When everyone is in the same space and time are very happy. For me it is a really
great moment, sometimes, even teardrops start falling because of my happiness. I feel very lucky to be in this moment
with such an audience."
