Evelyn Glennie shows how to listen

So, a thing about Evelyn Glennie's performance that I was able to remember is that she is deaf, yet she can still listen through her body, and the vibrations that go through her body. So, what she was really saying is that she can hear through her body, not through her ears.
Listening to her performance, she can control the mood of the music she is playing through how she plays it, and you just feel the music vibrations in yourself that kinda control your mood.
Several different factors that controlled the music she played were what she felt, where she played the notes, and on what instrument she played.
"each person experiences music in their own way" is one of her quotes. I find this to be true because deaf people feel vibrations, people who cant speak (dumb is the literal term for this) play to say what they feel, and others just listen with their ears.

Sustainability Visits - Blog post - Reflections

1. What struck me about the locations I went to? Well, The farmers market I went to was pretty huge, filled with huge amounts of tents to as far as the eye can see, most of the people there being farmers, and the rest being some kind of an object seller, or an advertising restaurant.

2. Many of the items that were cheaper than I expected were out-of-season items, like corn and other stuff like that.

3. I might still continue going to a farmers market every so often, but I wont want to go through the trouble of getting to a community garden and a CSA again, taking me forever to get to them.

4. These locations fit into our questions of “Why Don’t People Live More Sustainably?” and “How Can I Convince them to do So?” by people going there to avoid using their cars and take public transit, and to not use processed goods, but food from the source so it eliminates the added in chemicals from the facilities, leaving you with the (hopefully) clean food.
