My father’s memories of children’s games and dark chlorine pools linger like the stubborn paint, threatening to leave but refusing to stay.

High school Flashbacks… the worst kind. Alright I am kind of joking. My high school experience was not that bad. Before high school I had attended the same small local school my entire life. I had known most of my classmates since Pre-K and we all lived close by. Yes I was usually busy with … More Highschool Flashbacks (Happy Birthday Mariana!)
The world is full of different people, places, and ideas. What do we have in common? Sound. Noise. Bass. Beat. Harmony. Music. Music is the common denominator and is a big part of our humanity. Maybe it’s the beating of our hearts that inspires us to organize sound into music. I’m not sure what it is … More Musically Inclined
