"...If you work in electronics you must know the devices to know how far you 
can go and often many interesting pieces of work are created by forcing the 
machines so that they can go beyond what they are capable of. Here 
serendipity comes into play, when you're working on the sensitive issue, 
because in reality you're working with things that come up, that were 
unforeseen. So you must have a foundation but then forget about it a little, 
so as to not remain attached to the issue, if not it's very difficult to get 
out of that situation. It's what happens when you study counterpoint for 
many years or harmony and at the end you only know how to do counterpoint 
and harmony exercises and that's dramatic. It's what happens to most 
composers. The technique is very important but you must not get trapped by 
it: it will be a topos, but technique is important mostly in order to 
transcend it. What is interesting are the paths that people use to get over 
it, to acquire the domain of what is difficult to transmit with language..."

Josè Manuel Berenguer, from "ACOUSTICS AND SERENDIPITY. AN INTERVIEW WITH 
JOSE' MANUEL BERENGUER" by Barbara Sansone & Jordì Salvado
