Download or read book The Tao of Sound written by Fabien Maman and published by . This book was released on 2008-03-04 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1981, French musician/composer and acupuncturist Fabien Maman conducted a revolutionary sound/cellular experiment, documenting for the first time under a microscope, the impacts of acoustic sound on human cells. This research changed the landscape of vibrational sound healing as we know it today. Websters' Dictionary (English), sites Maman as the founding father of vibrational sound therapy. His colleagues call him a visionary before his time. 2011 marks the 30th anniversary of Maman's sound/cellular experiment. In commemoration of this anniversary, Fabien Maman has now written The Tao of Sound: Acoustic Sound Healing for the 21st Century. This book is an encyclopedia of Maman's more than 30 years of research and practical application, creating more than 30 techniques to heal the body, mind and spirit using acoustic sound, color and chi movement®. Fabien Maman is the man who created the now famous technique of using tuning forks and color lights on the acupuncture meridians to heal the body, mind and spirit. Each evolutionary technique is grounded in sound and cellular research, as well as the Classical traditions of music theory, mathematics, Chinese medicine, aikido, Kototama and astrology. The Tao of Sound will become the quintessential Encyclopedia for Sound Healing. It is everything you ever wanted to know about Fabien Maman's sound research and sound protocols from Star to Cell - linking the human body, organs, meridians, chakras and subtle energy fields with the 5 elements of nature, 8 directions of the Bagwa, the Kaballa and the stars and beyond. And it is backed by his 100 brilliant color photographs of human cells under the influence of acoustic sound! It is also a manifesto for acoustic sound - challenging all who enter the world of vibrational sound healing, to do so softly... with no electronic nor electric sounds... but returning, once again, to the healing power of pure overtones and harmonics that can only be found in the five elements and the nature....

Book excerpt: From the founder of the Wu-Tang Clan—celebrating their 25th anniversary this year—an inspirational book for the hip hop fan. The RZA, founder of the Wu-Tang Clan, imparts the lessons he's learned on his journey from the Staten Island projects to international superstardom. A devout student of knowledge in every form in which he's found it, he distills here the wisdom he's acquired into seven "pillars," each based on a formative event in his life-from the moment he first heard the call of hip-hop to the death of his cousin and Clan- mate, Russell Jones, aka ODB. Delivered in RZA's unmistakable style, at once surprising, profound, and provocative, The Tao of Wu is a spiritual memoir the world has never seen before, and will never see again. A nonfiction Siddhartha for the hip-hop generation from the author of The Wu-Tang Manual, it will enlighten, entertain, and inspire.
Download or read book Music Data Mining written by Tao Li and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-07-12 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research area of music information retrieval has gradually evolved to address the challenges of effectively accessing and interacting large collections of music and associated data, such as styles, artists, lyrics, and reviews. Bringing together an interdisciplinary array of top researchers, Music Data Mining presents a variety of approaches to successfully employ data mining techniques for the purpose of music processing. The book first covers music data mining tasks and algorithms and audio feature extraction, providing a framework for subsequent chapters. With a focus on data classification, it then describes a computational approach inspired by human auditory perception and examines instrument recognition, the effects of music on moods and emotions, and the connections between power laws and music aesthetics. Given the importance of social aspects in understanding music, the text addresses the use of the Web and peer-to-peer networks for both music data mining and evaluating music mining tasks and algorithms. It also discusses indexing with tags and explains how data can be collected using online human computation games. The final chapters offer a balanced exploration of hit song science as well as a look at symbolic musicology and data mining. The multifaceted nature of music information often requires algorithms and systems using sophisticated signal processing and machine learning techniques to better extract useful information. An excellent introduction to the field, this volume presents state-of-the-art techniques in music data mining and information retrieval to create novel ways of interacting with large music collections.
Book Synopsis The Tao of Spiritual Partnership by : Gabriella Kortsch, Ph.d.
Download or read book The Tao of Spiritual Partnership written by Gabriella Kortsch, Ph.d. and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More exciting than any other kind of relationship you have ever known, spiritual partnership is a path, a Tao, available to you so that you may transform your life. Spiritual partnership becomes background music to daily life allowing you to enhance the process of your growth and evolution. This ground-breaking book addresses: • relationship patterns that hold you back from a truly fulfilled life • the strong connection between sexuality and spiritual partnership • communication leading to true connection & lasting transformation of your relationship It is precisely at the problematic crossroads so often encountered in relationships that we are offered the opportunity to create a new foundation based on mutual complementarity rather than need; a free relationship between two people who want to be together, rather than two people who need to be together. Needing another, we are told, is the measure of love, but for a fully conscious individual nothing could be further from the truth. And therein lies part of the secret and healing power of spiritual partnerships. Praise for The Tao of Spiritual Partnership “All humans seek the illusive touch of another's Soul, which opens us to the sense of belonging to something bigger than the self. Dr. Kortsch has given us the true "tao" of relationship in this brilliant exploration of emotional tapestry. We will be grateful for this illumination of spiritual partnership for generations to come." Chris Griscom: Spiritual Leader, Author “Eloquently and comprehensive, showing how your primary love relationship may be a sacred vessel that transports you and your partner to a place of mutual healing and expansion.” Robert Schwartz: Author of Your Soul's Gift: The Healing Power of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born "The Tao of Spiritual Partnership is a unique blend of wit and wisdom; Dr. Kortsch encourages us to take responsibility for our relationships, while recognizing and seizing the opportunities for our own personal spiritual growth." William Buhlman, Author of Adventures Beyond the Body "The Tao of Spiritual Partnership is an excellent guide to making your relationships blossom. Dr. Kortsch deftly shows the way to satisfying interactions with the loves of your life." Jim Wawro, Author of Awakening Counsel: A Practical Guide to Creating the Life You Want to Live. "Gabriella Kortsch takes us through a journey that covers most aspects of human relationships from new-born to adult, leading us into the power of spiritual partnerships. The importance of fulfillment of a life well-lived through understanding and practicing self-love is paramount and candidly expressed in this one-of-a-kind book. The promise "to love without needing" is profoundly delivered!" ALI R. RODRIGUEZ: Business Coach Strategist, Co-Author of Mastering the Art of Success with Les Brown and Jack Canfield
Book Synopsis MUSIC AND THE MIND by : Anthony Storr
Download or read book MUSIC AND THE MIND written by Anthony Storr and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does music have such a powerful effect on our minds and bodies? It is the most mysterious and most tangible of all forms of art. Yet, Anthony Storr believes, music today is a deeply significant experience for a greater number of people than ever before. In this book, he explores why this should be so. Drawing on a wide variety of opinions, Storr argues that the patterns of music make sense of our inner experience, giving both structure and coherence to our feelings and emotions. It is because music possesses this capacity to restore our sense of personal wholeness in a culture which requires us to separate rational thought from feelings that many people find it so life-enhancing that it justifies existence.

Download or read book The Tao of Hoop written by Ann Humphreys and published by Line&circle. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tao of Hoop is a philosophical memoir about how the humble hula-hoop transformed one woman's life...but, seriously, though! Ann Humphreys was not aware that she didn't understand how to feel--something we don't learn about in school--until she very randomly (through crushing on a hot dude) found the hula-hoop at age 35. Having endured a life-altering loss as a teenager, Ann had learned to handle grief and pain through the time-honored Southern traditions of denial and repression. The hula-hoop broke those old patterns, allowing her to meet a new wave of challenges with a clear mind and an open heart. Part story, part treatise, part inquiry, part self-help guide--The Tao of Hoop is a raw, poetic, and captivating read you will have a hard time putting down.
Book Synopsis The Tao of Willie by : Willie Nelson
Download or read book The Tao of Willie written by Willie Nelson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-05-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in small-town Texas during the Great Depression, Willie Nelson was raised to believe in helping his neighbors and living without pretense. After many hardscrabble years as a poorly paid songwriter (often watching his work become a gold mine for other performers), Willie finally found his own voice—the gentle but unmistakably honest sound that has made him an American icon. Now the master of harmonization has created a guide to finding harmony in everyday life. Featuring vignettes from each chapter of his seventy-plus years (along with plenty of his favorite jokes), The Tao of Willie captures his views on money, love, war, religion, cowboys, and other essential Willie topics. Loosely based on the principles of the Chinese philosophy of the Tao Te Cheng, which Willie has admired and followed for much of his adult life, this inspiring and entertaining collection of "Willie wisdom" takes us from his roadhouse days, when he united redneck rockers with straitlaced country music fans, to the mega-sized benefit concerts and environmentalism that define his boundless heart. In the spirit of his fellow Texan Harvey Penick's Little Red Book, Willie's timeless insights sparkle with clarity: It's like having a one-on-one conversation with the sage himself.

Download or read book Musicophilia written by Oliver Sacks and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-02-05 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What goes on in human beings when they make or listen to music? What is it about music, what gives it such peculiar power over us, power delectable and beneficent for the most part, but also capable of uncontrollable and sometimes destructive force? Music has no concepts, it lacks images; it has no power of representation, it has no relation to the world. And yet it is evident in all of us–we tap our feet, we keep time, hum, sing, conduct music, mirror the melodic contours and feelings of what we hear in our movements and expressions. In this book, Oliver Sacks explores the power music wields over us–a power that sometimes we control and at other times don’t. He explores, in his inimitable fashion, how it can provide access to otherwise unreachable emotional states, how it can revivify neurological avenues that have been frozen, evoke memories of earlier, lost events or states or bring those with neurological disorders back to a time when the world was much richer. This is a book that explores, like no other, the myriad dimensions of our experience of and with music.
Book Synopsis The Second Book of the Tao by : Stephen Mitchell
Download or read book The Second Book of the Tao written by Stephen Mitchell and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enhanced by Stephen Mitchell’s illuminating commentary, the next volume of the classic manual on the art of living The most widely translated book in world literature after the Bible, Lao-tzu’s Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living. Following the phenomenal success of his own version of the Tao Te Ching, renowned scholar and translator Stephen Mitchell has composed the innovative The Second Book of the Tao. Drawn from the work of Lao-tzu’s disciple Chuang-tzu and Confucius’s grandson Tzussu, The Second Book of the Tao offers Western readers a path into reality that has nothing to do with Taoism or Buddhism or old or new alone, but everything to do with truth. Mitchell has selected the freshest, clearest teachings from these two great students of the Tao and adapted them into versions that reveal the poetry, depth, and humor of the original texts with a thrilling new power. Alongside each adaptation, Mitchell includes his own commentary, at once explicating and complementing the text. This book is a twenty-first-century form of ancient wisdom, bringing a new, homemade sequel to the Tao Te Ching into the modern world. Mitchell’s renditions are radiantly lucid; they dig out the vision that’s hiding beneath the words; they grab the text by the scruff of the neck—by its heart, really—and let its essential meanings fall out. The book introduces us to a cast of vivid characters, most of them humble artisans or servants, who show us what it means to be in harmony with the way things are. Its wisdom provides a psychological and moral acuity as deep as the Tao Te Ching itself. The Second Book of the Tao is a gift to contemporary readers, granting us access to our own fundamental wisdom. Mitchell’s meditations and risky reimagining of the original texts are brilliant and liberating, not least because they keep catching us off-guard, opening up the heavens where before we saw a roof. He makes the ancient teachings at once modern, relevant, and timeless. Listen to a special podcast with Stephen Mitchell:
