Hadrian and the Table of Changes was inspired by the circular philosopher’s temple at Villa Adriano outside of Rome. As a diaphanous structural cylinder made of wood, Hadrian contains 64 vertical and 10 horizontal divisions. Table of Changes shares the same 64 permutations in the form of a chess board superimposed with the 64 changes from I Ching and invites the visitor to sit down and play. Hadrian also included a rotating seat in the central position. I use this during performances when playing soprano sax or some other "vector" instrument. Such dervish spinning gives one the sensation of levitation.
