Many will probably immediately either like or not care for his music.

I like his music.

The cerebral disconnect for me is seeing him play this music in a suit and tie using the standard classical guitar sitting position. If I only heard the music, I would imagine the performer to have long flowing hair, wearing a psychedelic outfit, eyes closed, either seated in the lotus position or standing, either surrounded by flowers and other plants, or with some type of elaborate fluctuating background lighting.

I liked it. Reminds me of Steve Reich's 'Electric Counterpoint', and I'm wondering what it is that pulls me in with this kind of music. Interesting.
