This is going out a bit on an intellectual limb, but the element of jazz
that's most often mentioned as its vitalizing spark is improvisation.
Correspondingly, literary PIs have to fly by the seat of their pants

The link is weak, but it's the first thing that jumped into my mind when
I read your posting.
