"I have written pieces for the human body such as Concert for Woman (1968) and Doing Something with One’s Body and the Wall (1966). In the first one, the main part consists of soft, extremely varied noises which can be obtained by blowing into a woman’s hair. In the second one, any variation whatsoever is right; as long as noises are produced by beating one’s body against the wall. However, I want to make it clear that as far as I am concerned the body is a thing like anything else. I have written pieces for the woman, but also for the bicycle, for the necklace, for the tape-recorder, for the TV set, for the city, for a sheet of paper, for a stone, for anything whatsoever" (Giuseppe Chiari).
