“The Factory” is an experimental minimalist piece that can best be defined by the a notion rescued at the basis of John Cage’s work: from looking repeatedly at the same object, its depth is revealed. In fact, this notion is related to a Zen proverb that says that “in the beginning mountains are mountains and the rivers are rivers, in the middle mountains are no longer mountains nor rivers are rivers, but in the end mountains are mountains and rivers are rivers again”, describing the paths our perceptions take in the search for apprehend the essential reality of phenomena.
