Free Play

Dr. Gilbert gave us a book named Free Play: Improvisation in Life and Art. It was written by Stephen Nachmanovitch.

The most impressive sentence is "i" am not "doing something"; it's more like following, or taking dictation. So the only thing we need to do is listen our heart and follow them. Lots of musicians are good at accurately expressing composer's music. When there are no solid scores for them, some musicians will feel anxious. I think the most living music is from communicate with our partner and then express what has feelings for the communication. This communication not only means language communication, but also can include music, dance, pictures and so on.

This video is a sand animation. A Russian woman named Kseniya Simonova drawn it based on the Second War. Even though I saw this video more than 10 times, I still was moved when I saw it again this morning. 



This video is totally improvisation. It is very funny.
