In these words, Paganini is not treated as a historical personality, but as a phenomenon that disrupts the established boundaries between culture and nature. His performance practice is approached not as artistic expression, but as the manifestation of a primordial tension underlying all forms of life. The focus, therefore, is not on the literal musical text — not on notes, technique, or idiom — but on the structures that precede them: the vibrational patterns that act prior to cognition and penetrate beneath the threshold of consciousness.
