ΟΣΟΝ ΖΗΣ ΦΑΙΝΟΥ
ΜΗΔΕΝ ΟΛΩΣ ΣΥ ΛΥΠΟΥ
ΠΡΟΣ ΟΛΙΓΟΝ ΕΣΤΙ ΤΟ ΖΗΝ
ΤΟ ΤΕΛΟΣ Ο ΧΡΟΝΟΣ ΑΠΑΙΤΕΙ
While you live, shine
have no grief at all
life exists only for a short while
and Time demands his due
Epitaph of Seikilos, 200 BCE
Seikilos sums up the essence of life with the utmost concision and elegance, in the oldest surviving complete musical composition. This is what I am after: radiating light upon the world. My main mediums are Music and Sound and my method is Mousagneia (Greek: Μούσα = Muse, Αγνεία = Purity). If by the time I die I have inspired somebody, then my life was worth living.
