Playing is Serious Business: The Responsibility of Truth

2026

without SHAPE without FORM With Carlos Niño · With Deep K Kailey Watch on YouTube ↗

With Carlos Niño, in conversation with Deep K Kailey, recorded ahead of their TOTAL RESPONSE performance in New York.

Is true play an act of discipline? Ahead of their TOTAL RESPONSE performance in New York, artists Carlos Niño and Nirbhai (nep) Singh Sidhu join Deep K Kailey to explore the rigorous yet joyful practice of creative expression.

They discuss Simran and the responsibility of sharing it with care and integrity. Exploring their deep artistic connection, they reflect on the freedom found in the just doing — where creation becomes a boundaryless act. The conversation moves into the nature of a weak mind and how easily it is influenced.

Carlos Niño is a percussionist, producer and composer known for his collaborative approach to spiritual jazz and ambient music, and the music director of the concerts.
