It is the brilliant minds and beautiful hearts of new generation explorers like Kei Kreutler who give me hope for the future. In this talk she integrates multiple domains of knowledge to explore the theoretical and practical dimensions of mediums of memory. Her passionate search has a deep and higher framework that inspire... See more

When I listen to this, I can't help but hear James Brown's "It's a Man's World" in those sweet melodic parts. Mehldau's a virtuoso, and I know he can explore the hell out of a piece, but I love when he brings out the sweet. The buildup from the search he begins at 6:00 comes to a beautiful culmination at 6:50 and in comes that wonderful melody agai... See more

Bruce Hornsby did not start piano until he was 17 years old, yet he remains one of the most important pianists of the 21st century, as he established a sound that is his own.

I’ve been playing Minecraft since I was 10, and still do to this day at 18 years old. I’ve spend these past years making multiple cities and experimenting with the craziest building and urban planning designs. My biggest project yet it a world I have been working on for 5 years now. It covers a little over 1 million square blocks, and is a world wh... See more

Something that continues to impress me about him is that he never shies away from the bottom half to the keyboard. It's a place a lot of people (or just I) tend to avoid because it's easy to muddy and it's hard to hear the nice tensions you can create with closed voicings but Joey navigates it PERFECTLY. He redistributes tensio... See more

Hobie is both anarchist and a punk, and the traits you mentioned of anarchists is likely more applicable to punks, given they are all about counterculture. Ironically, punks and anarchists often are quite caring or collectivist because they recognize the need for human connection and co-operation. They just reject the top-down hierarchical structur...
