I find myself able to think very clearly about the shape and timbre of sounds going on around me: the compression device on my leg, the alarms that until recently were hooked up to my vital functions.
Radigue's insistence on the importance of space in the unfolding of sound and its harmonics has often made me think of a grid of sound, occupying a cubic space in which a note and its partials may be logged accordingly.
This involves a radical shift from listening to and internalising music, to being held externally in a sonic landscape.
The important thing is that the grid is dynamic; it is always dynamic.
