You might as well leave this for later…or perhaps not

I wasn´t sure whether to write this. I thought about it and then it felt it was not the right time, or the right place. Maybe tomorrow, or later if I need to do it fast.

The truth is that we all need to mature ideas, and get them to the point of inflection where they become more than just ideas. And for that we need time. Or do we?

In any case, before we consider this, first we may need to get to that book someone recommended as a great inspirational read. Better yet, before that there is a YouTube video we can watch and which will summarize everything, opening our apetite for knowledge, no doubt.

And as long as we are talking about appetite, we may be hungry by now so why not better get something to eat and come back to this afterwards…or after a siesta perhaps?

Anyhow, even while having a bite, how about watching Tim Urban talk about the fact that procrastination doesn’t make sense, while he explains that he’s never been able to shake his habit of waiting until the last minute to get things done.

You, me, and most of us will feel in familiar ground somehow by watching this funny and insightful talk from TED Vancouver in 2016.

And if you never had a chance to have a look at this subject, let´s just say that you kept putting it off perhaps, this may be a great opportunity to get on track again.

 

Until next time

Ignacio

IF YOU THINK YOU ALREADY KNOW, LOOK AGAIN

Reality is a construction. What we see, we see through a series of “intermediaries”. Senses much like a security video camera, a concert speaker, a microphone and other electronic sensors that we already have commonly available.

As an artist I am keenly aware that color is refractive. Thus according to the amount and type of light I have in front of me, colors and shapes will change (more colors than shapes, but those will too). In other words, we redefine the world by modifying our capacity to see. We are part of an ecosystem that is constantly moving and forcing us to modify our focus with it.

It means that everything is quite relative as each one of us creates our reality based in short term memory “bursts” of schemas, photos that make up a nice little movie that will most probably, but not necessarily, become long term memory.

From the same accident scene, 10 people looking at it will “record” in their memories 10 different movies. People will incorporate things that others have not seen, and many times, things that were never there.

As a synesthetic artist, I already “see” what I hear. This TED lecture, from 2009, by Beau Lotto plays with your vision, your perceptivity of sound, other senses, and your brain, thus spotlighting what you can’t normally see: how your brain works.

I hope you enjoy this fun perception of what’s really out there.

Until next time

Why is there something instead of nothing

This is a very nice lecture by Philosopher and writer Jim Holt in which he digs into this subject, and attempts three (four, five, none?) possible explanations.

It raises many of the long-standing questions we will always have, at least until 4 or 5 Einsteins come into existence…. (you will get it later).

This is a live recorded TED lecture from 2014.

 

Until next time

Ignacio

THE SUNDAY CONCERT: MONK IN DENMARK

Thelonious Monk is considered to be one of the great piano geniuses of Jazz. A man with quite a few demons, he managed to compose, play and create an undenaibly personal playing style.

At 22 he became the official piano player at Milton´s in Harlem. He would jam with Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Kenny Clark and many others. Together they give birth to a new sound which would be known as BeBop.

In this concert, recorded in Denmark, we find him playing with Charlie Rouse (tenor sax), Ben Riley (drums) and Larry Gales (Base)

 

Until next time!

THE SUNDAY CONCERT: JAZZ AT THE PHILARMONIC (BBC, 1967)

Jazz at the Philharmonic was a British program presented and produced by the BBC. It featured some of the world´s best and brightest Jazz musicians in a huge Jam Session.

In this episode (digitalized from an old videotape) from 1967, the line-up is incredible and worth a second and third look:

Clark Terry – James Moody -Zoot Sims -Dizzy Gillespie – Coleman Hawkins – Benny Carter – Teddy Wilson – Bob Cranshaw – Louie Bellson – T-bone Walker

Until next time!
