Sometimes, pictures illustrate a point really well. Do you think you wash your hands often enough? Or that hand sanitizer is effective?

"At the beginning of winter, when flu season had just started, Jaralee Metcalf, a behavioral specialist from Idaho Falls Elementary School, shared that she was tired of always being sick. Although the spread of bacteria in her class was inevitable, she wanted to show the kids why they needed to wash their hands to kill germs."

Testing forwarding.

A year ago, I got myself a midi keyboard. I was always a huge electronic music fan and had always wanted to try some things out in that space. I came across it as I was searching for a Christmas present for one of my goddaughters. After I had gotten it and given it to her, I wanted one for myself.

Then came the process of experimenting, watching loads of YouTube videos and of course, taking long breaks. With me, it’s an iterative long process learning something new and going through peaks and troughs of enthusiasm.
But now I’ve made a breakthrough in terms of learning music theory and chords and scales. It’s the combination of watching the deconstruction videos on YouTube and using Beatmaker on the iPad and then iterating back to the Arturia Minilab. There isn’t anything that is any good so far but now I can see possibilities instead of searching around in the dark.
So my humble advice is to play around and enjoy the peaks and take breaks in the troughs of enthusiasm for learning something new. It’s the journey that is fun.

Binging a lot of Amazon Prime video stuff before my membership expires in a few days. Didn’t realize how many great shows are on there.Bridget & Eamonn (really funny if you know 1980s Ireland)
Faking it (early 2000s reality show, photographers still using film)
And then there is Margin Call, fantastic cast, great script, intelligent filmmaking. I would love to watch more films like that to show the world of business in a way that the public can understand. Like the way Jeremy Irons character tells Zachary Quinto to explain the financial problem as if he were telling it to a small child or dog. Another aspect was that the main actor from the Netflix show You plays a junior analyst in the film.
One other show I rewatched was Anthony Bordain’s No Reservations show about his visit to Helsinki in winter. I’m not such a big foodie but that episode is still really enjoyable to this day.
Okay, I need to stop watching so much great shows and films but that’s my recommendations for today.
