Download or read book Wabi Sabi written by Andrew Juniper and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-10 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed out of the aesthetic philosophy of cha-no-yu (the tea ceremony) in fifteenth-century Japan, wabi sabi is an aesthetic that finds beauty in things imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete. Taken from the Japanese words wabi, which translates to less is more, and sabi, which means attentive melancholy, wabi sabi refers to an awareness of the transient nature of earthly things and a corresponding pleasure in the things that bear the mark of this impermanence. As much a state of mind--an awareness of the things around us and an acceptance of our surroundings--as it is a design style, wabi sabi begs us to appreciate the simple beauty in life--a chipped vase, a quiet rainy day, the impermanence of all things. Presenting itself as an alternative to today's fast-paced, mass-produced, neon-lighted world, wabi sabi reminds us to slow down and take comfort in the simple, natural beauty around us. In addition to presenting the philosophy of wabi-sabi, this book includes how-to design advice--so that a transformation of body, mind, and home can emerge. Chapters include: History: The Development of Wabi Sabi Culture: Wabi Sabi and the Japanese Character Art: Defining Aesthetics Design: Creating Expressions with Wabi Sabi Materials Spirit: The Universal Spirit of Wabi Sabi
Book Synopsis Songwriting Shortcuts for the Native American Flute by : Jonny Lipford
Download or read book Songwriting Shortcuts for the Native American Flute written by Jonny Lipford and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-10 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing music can be a very rewarding and creative process, but sometimes it can be overwhelming - especially if you're new to this, or you've been told that you're not good at songwriting! When I was a kid, my piano teacher told my mom that I wasn't cut out for music. For years I listened to that false belief. Then my creativity was liberated when I started with the Native American flute. I didn't know anything about music, but I came up with my own way of writing music and capturing melodies... and it worked! That framework helped me write more than 200 songs. With this book, you'll learn how to capture those short melodies so that you can repeat what you just played, arrange your song so that you aren't mindlessly noodling, and connect your story so you have the confidence to share your music This is the secret sauce, and in this e-book, I'll show you the shortcuts to these exact tactics! Creative endeavors require good tools. That's why I've built a toolkit for you. You'll find capturing tactics, arrangement strategies, blank NAF TAB sheets, phrasing prompts and a story sheet as part of this book to help you maximize your songwriting experience. Note: This book does not address how to write the notes on that staff. Instead, we are focusing solely on finger diagrams for now. If you already read Nakai TAB you are welcome to use that feature. I will be creating a course for learning the Nakai TAB system in the future!

As the air is being split, half is going over the air split (outside the flute), the other half going inside the flute. This produces a harmonic vibration of the air waves.The holes in the body of the flute allows the air going inside the flute to escape at the flute holes. The flute players fingers, controls the air escaping at the flute holes. A different sound (note) is heard as the air escapes the body of the flute, at each hole. The sound is different because the wave length is different at each hole. The shorter the wave length the higher the note (pitch). The longer the wave length the lower the note (pitch).Lots of detailed information and photos, and tables.
