During one of my mysterious journeys last week, I came across one of the most famous towns in the country, Liverpool. The city of music. I can't think of a better place to get inspiration for my new music.
Despite how bad the weather looked at first sight, I found a way to enjoy it and get as many ideas as possible! I was actually considering the philosophy of John Cage that there is no such thing as silence in music... I guess it's true!
That wind was so strong that I thought I might get blown away. But nope, I'm stronger than I thought! Then like an eagle, I flew towards the sky and let the wind blow me as hard as it could! For me, it was a symphony of wind! It makes sense then that it can be used similarly to Johan Cage's chart and gamut methods. What could happen... I wondered. Then I fell down and got up because I knew what to do to make a Cage proud! Let's see how my music composing mind can utilize the wind. I'm just trying to find the sound's own expressions within a blank space of empty time.
You can watch my four short videos of playing with the wind.

You'll see that I didn't think it could be part of my future composition, but we'll see how it goes. Having discovered an idea for an upcoming composition in my mind, I think it's a bit like what Cage says. For Cage, the silence was a sound he hadn't planned to use, whereas sound was intended.
In that case, there's really no such thing as silence, and I believe that creative thinking can help us develop that concept!
There are so many beautiful places to explore so many cool things to check out! You can hear music everywhere. Life is full of music, no matter where you are!
Each picture gave me ideas and memories I'll never forget!
Think outside the box! Go for it!
Keep an eye out for my next adventure!
Have a great time with the music as I did ;) !
PS Check out my musical inspiration video! Enjoy!
