Blake Gillespie--earth jazz

My favorite analogy of Eisenberg's was the use of music, especially jazz, when it comes to the cohabitation of earth. He was point on in his explanation, because not only are jazz musicians talented, but they also have the ear for it. I feel like we do not have the ear for listening and adapting, and that is something that is imperative for change. Likewise, the listening ear is important in everyday life as well. We don't listen enough. We don't slow down enough and listen. The walk-abouts the aboriginals perform in Australia is a perfect example of listening and doing. They become one with their surroundings through singing and listening to nature. We need to replicate that from time to time.
