Why this name?
Quidditas is a philosophical term referring to the essential 'whatness' of a thing, or the ultimate substance of which that thing is made. The term was coined by the medieval Scholastics to describe a concept of 'substance' they encountered whilst translating Aristotle.
Do you play live?
I play live quite often in my room; however, I am so underground that I am the only person who comes to my shows.
Your influences?
Musical influences? As much is I do not like this question, i guess everyone is influenced in one way or another by other musicians. I am influenced by early Twentieth century experimental composers (such as George Antheil and Luigi Russolo), Sun Ra, John Zorn, Whitehouse. I am mainly influenced by sound waves, different frequencies, and how sound can be manipulated. I am also heavily influenced by the cosmos and superceeding temporality.
