> The 'life of their own', that these instruments had back then, was so strong, that many of the (also positive) surprises, resulted from us being simply unable control them. They were brandnew, so, at first there was no way to know and handle them down to the last detail.
Out of that, many things developed at random.

Today, after 15 years of intensive work with the whole equipment, we know a whole lot more about it - and the underlying possibilities.

On the other hand, this surely bears the disadvantage, that you calculate to many things in advance, that you know the outcome more or less exactly - and surely some of the spontaneity and the chances get lost along the way. <
