do you play them once said music gives a soul to the universe wings to the mind flight to the imagination and life to everything music is always been a big part of my life to create and perform music connected to people countries and lifetimes away I connected to the people you're playing with to your audience and to yourself when I'm happy when I'm sad when I'm
bored when I'm stressed I listen to and I create music when I was younger I played piano later took up guitar and I started high school music became a part of my identity I was in every band I was involved with every musical finance event music surrounded me it made me who I was and it gives me a place to belong when I was younger remember
walking down the hallways in my school and I would tap rhythms to myself on my leg with my hands are tapping my TV it was a nervous habit and I was always nervous I think I like the repetition of the rhythm it was calming to this day I find myself tapping with them sometimes later in high school high studied music theory is the best class I've
ever taken we're learning about music things I didn't know like theory and history is it because we basically just sat and listened to a song and talked about what it meant to us analyze certain figured out what made it tech and every Wednesday we did something called rhythmic dictation and I was pretty good at it a teacher would give us an amount of measures and a
time signature and then he would speak a rhythm to us and we would have to write it down at the proper rest and notes like this Tara Tara ticket to Qatar tele ticket taker to call to come and I loved it the simplicity of the rhythm of basic tutor for much aligned and yet each of them almost full story I did so much potential I know
you had to do was Adam melody mmhm for them to set a foundation from melodies and harmonies plan top of the give structure and stability music has these parts melody harmony and rhythm just like our lives where music has rhythm we have your teens and habits things that help us to remember what to do and stay on track and it just keep going and you may
not notice it but it's always there it may seem simple I think dole by itself yes tempo heart beat to it thank you friends and your family anything that creates a harmonic structure in your life your song Mike harmonies ornamentation anything that makes it polyphonic they create beautiful chords cadences and then there's you the melody a planned public everything out top of the the it's a
change and develop no matter how much we change still the same people what I saw melodies change but it's still the same song no matter what you do that the temple the heart beat until I left and I went to college and everything disappeared when I first arrived at university I felt lost not get me wrong sometimes I loved it those great but other times delicate
been left alone to fend for myself but given taken out of my natural environment put somewhere new the harmonies and rhythms had gone away it was just me mmhm silence mmhm my malady in that they cannot waiver I was doing chords destruction myself repeat teletype our and we can hear other time and off key uhhuh the Mars around them my my melody started to sound like
they're we begin to lose myself and it was being washed away the next moment mmhm NQA here could feel it is me fresh worse off change the little music is my way of coping with the changes in my life there's a beautiful connection between music and life it can bind us to reality at the same time it allows us to escape it music is something that
lives inside of you you create it and your created by at now our lives are not only conducted by music there also composed of it this may seem like a bit of a stretch but hear me out music is a fundamental part of what we are if everything around us no music is my passion physics also used to be an interest of mine and the more
I learned the more second actions between the two especially regarding string theory now I know this is only one of many theories but it spoke to me so string theory addicts simplest form is this matter is made up of atoms which is made up of protons and neutrons electrons which is made up of Cork neither the string part comes in this Cork is supposedly made up
of little coiled strength and as the vibrations in the strings that make everything what it is major kaku once explained this at a lecture called the universe in a nutshell where he states string theory is the simple idea but the four forces of the universe gravity electromagnetic force and the two strong forces can be viewed as music the music of tiny little rubber bands in the
factory he goes on to explain physics as the laws of harmony between the strings and chemistry the melodies that we can play on the strings he states that the universe in a symphony of strength the strings dictate the universe the musical notes but they make up everything we see and everything we know they hold us together and they make us what we are CC everything is
muzak uhhuh when I look at the world I see music all around look at myself the music my life has been defined by I found myself through music music is everywhere and it is and everything changes then it builds and it diminishes but it's always there supporting us connecting a switch over showing us the beauty of the you know for so if you ever feel lost
