I first came across falling whistles not  long ago via a friend. Now, just a few weeks later, I sit here at one table in Tribeca NY with Sinclair from fw and some more whistleblowers over (not really) turkish coffee . A whistle is hanging right over my heart. 

“…..This is the story of a single day. A single, shape-shifting, life-changing, perspective-altering, never.be.the.same.kinda day.I originally went to Africa to put shoes on kid’s feet.  My friend Blake had built a companygrounded in giving and there I was, on the ground, giving.After the shoe drop, I wandered. Sometimes with friends, sometimes alone, sometimessafe,sometimes not.  I wanted into the wild. And wild it was…….”

read THE STORY here

It looks really dope too…it matches the whole preppy meets gothic meets-lisa bonet-thing I am into right now perfectly. let’s make this fashion and spread it.

Christmas is coming….make a gift…wear it…talk about it. It’s so easy to DO SOMETHING.

I wonder how it would be if the sky would play music. Not only play, but expressing itself through music.

Not very loud , just like in the elevator. Imagine that the music would change with the weather and every freak of nature had it’s own melody. Every cloud, every single colour. All the light shades of pink in the evening and the mellow tints of orange, purple and blue after a thunder in summer, would have their own melody, every ray of sun it’s own tone. The wind could  be a light piano sonata. On a smooth summer day like this it could sound like ‘Claire de lune’. Every little change of temperatur or humanity would change the pitch of dozens of instruments. And just like nature they would play in perfect harmony, no day would sound like another, no two clouds are the same. Sunrise in autumn could sound like Newman’s ‘Whisper of a thrill’ and  when the sky would be lightned up by  bright moonlight at night it would sound  like Mahlers ‘Symphonie no.5′. Maybe a thunder would create the sound of a big symphonic orchestra and the calm and soft sprinkles of clouds in the sky after it would sound like mellow violins.

I just wonder how it would be if we were able to hear nature , to feel her on a higher level of understanding.
Do you think we would start to listen?

out my window

Listen. Watch the sky and the wind. Imagine.
Claire de lune
Whisper of a thrill
Symphony no.5

We all go different ways,

To see the same thing.

We all connect , like a net we cannot see.
