In this sculptural work, a trumpeter blew crystal glass with his trumpet, playing thirteen excerpts of 20'' each of the 1969 theme "It's About That Time" by Miles Davis, resulting in thirteen free forms.
These forms were then scanned, scaled-down and joined using the Incalmo technique in a unique piece of blown crystal, 100 centimeters long.
