We humans have always been able to fly with our spirit. In our minds we can instantaneously leap from one place to another. Yet not until the invention of corresponding software has the thinking human found the actual ability to overcome the boundaries of space and time without physically moving his body. The protagonist of the novel, who calls himself PiTTo, undergoes a painful learning process in which he befriends the sound which one night suddenly and out of nowhere overwhelms him. When he realizes that he can no longer escape it, he gives it the name, SAM. From then on the two of them, PiTTo and SAM, find themselves inseparable as they journey together. They act synchronously, and SAM initially gives PiTTo a new insight into the world of colors. From then on every painting that the artist, PiTTo, creates is simultaneously a sound tapestry, accessible only to him and SAM. When finally painter and painting meld together, PiTTo and SAM embark on a trip which leads them around the world. PiTTo calls this kind of traveling with the spirit Mind Traveling. His means of transportation is sound. The ability of our ears to orient us in time and space, underestimated due to the dominance of sight, aids him in this method of travel. The protagonist uses an actual app, called 4'33. The app's indications of place, time, and especially sound provide the framework for these fantasy excursions.
