Playing is Serious Business: Responsibility of Truth
Is true play an act of discipline? Ahead of their "Total Response" performance in New York, artists Nep Sidhu and Carlos Niño join Deep to explore the rigorous yet joyful practice of creative expression. They discuss the concept of Simran and the profound responsibility of sharing it with care and integrity. Exploring their deep artistic connection, they reflect on the freedom found in the 'just doing'—where creation becomes a boundaryless act. The conversation moves into the nature of a "weak mind" and how easily it is influenced.
Nep Sidhu is an interdisciplinary practitioner whose work explores the metaphysics of form and spatial rhythm. Carlos Niño is an internationally renowned percussionist, producer, and composer known for his collaborative approach to spiritual jazz and ambient music. Together, they create immersive experiences that challenge the boundaries of sound and spirit.
