He refers to the works as "pieces" which to me implies - a work of art using sound rather than paint for example. If I do not think of it as " MUSIC" it's quite interesting to listen to.

Seems kind of silly to work on a piece like that for decades, when to most ears it would sound quite random. But I do appreciate his philosophical sort of approach to music in general.
