		Indeed, Techelet has mastered an improvisation method which they claim to be entirely their own, calling it the "mayim style," named thus not only because of the fluidity with which they move through their soundscapes, but also for the mystical-primordial connotations of water.

		In other words, the sky-blue techelet is supposed to point to a higher tachlit (purpose) in life.
