A playlist from Pekka Ihanainen as part of the elernenmuzik project at http://www.elernenmuzik.net. The liner notes for this project read as follows:

"Music is fuel as such and for catalysing other creativity. I use music when I have to get rid off physical-mental states filled with everyday issues of  studying and working. Music frees the mind for itself.

This minimalist playlist suits for me  when I want to get into the mood to create something new - is it academic writing or art. Minimalistic music in a way taps, drops and stretches the mind empty leaving it still in motion. 

The empty mind gives space for unique perceptions, concepts and unconventional acts, movements and behaviour. Creates!"
