he specifically arranged his music to trigger mental instability (like lighting to an epileptic). It is understood, that in order to be susceptible, you would already be presenting deficiencies, ie - preferring to listen his music in the first place. Especially over other well known, non-idiotic, genius, ingenious, life changing epiphany composers.

no i'm joking. Above one of the ledger lines he writes stop playing, and drop to the floor like a fish, which is all for show, so people think its mysterious. -  Like the bermuda triangle of piesces. ><(('>
