So the goal is the doingness of the piano, the creative aspect. I understand that. However, what drives you to continue to play the piano and to listen after?
truth is that its all about the zero.
its about nothingness.

Isn't it the prospect of creating for happiness, or someone else's happiness? Isn't that the effect that you're striving to cause over and over? Kind of like what I imagine cocaine is like?
maybe--but alot of different things get communicated with sound, not all of them pleasant.
it's not really something i know about--people say my playing is emotional, but i dont feel anything.
i see structures and make them bend.

(Your description of playing sounds suspiciously orgasmic.)

but maybe you're right.
if you are, then shhh....it's a secret.
