Music For Health – The Community Stories – An Intro | #blog101 #Music4Health #CommunityStories

Coming so far in the challenge, so good! From my own deeper personal experiences shared in confidence yesterday, this stream of writing, imaging and sounds relates to what comes directly from the communities I thrive and live by, with and in. The flow of everydayness, where the focus and filtering is kept to prioritize environments and events to enrich my understanding of what music does for health.   But how to define community? And what are the boundaries of a community? Hard to define, but I would say – community belonging marks a common interest, practice or denominator of some kind….

101 – what? Sorting out and filter … ing! | #blog366 #PhotoStory

Handbook of Music and Emotion. A cornerstone for further explorative searches, on what to deliver and get leverage with in my creative writing process on Music For Health, beginning 1st of September, 2016. I have identified two focuses, to which I still need to narrow down and write synopsis on, respectively. Both have been tested in the ‘How’ aspect. Are they researchable? The answer is a sounding Yes! So – level up, we will! Now, leaving the University Library across the street, and returning home. Work Trial, this is. But, not formalized, yet. Emergence! Done! Soon!

Fusible beads workshop – Pokémon Themed | #blog366 #photolog

Today, we had a workshop and made some fusible beads motives inspired by Pokémon, given the present Pokémon Go-hype (and its pixel-friendly nature makes it very appropriate too). To the left, Pikachu by Karin. And I made a Pokémon ball. Nadine made some as well (not in photo). Fun! And, no. I am not playing the game. Karin does! Good for exercise! Art, fun and play for health!

N as in Norrköping – Stadsloppet 10 km | #blog26 #wishlist

I love my home town. It’s beautiful. The old meeting the new. The hard meeting the soft. The rough meeting the polished. These contrasts. #Norrköping, here captured by Karin The @akrogirl on Instagram! Reflecting the beautiful and lovely, as she always does in her streams. I wish my town to be the greatest version of itself, it can be. I will not list the specifics, because that takes a wishlist A to Z in itself! There is still alot of development potentials in this town. Goes beyond this posting. But! When the town really comes together and lifts itself up,…

M as in Music For Health Research | #blog26 #wishlist

I was by the finding of the moment stumbling upon a music cassette in the collections of my mother-in-law. Ralph Lundsten, Mindscape Music. Ralph has made music that has been used as treatment in psychiatric wards in the UK. I will let the full story evolve regards Mindscape Music when I’ve heard this piece of music and researching its history. And this is exactly my wish. That I can get room, space, energy, health and place to find my little corner of the Big Verse named Music For Health, to research! Then I can dig deeper, in e. g. the…

Det här med önskelistor … | #blog366 #CommunityWednesday

Jag gjorde en samlad “brain dump” på något slags lista över önskningar vid min kökskontorssession med början i förrgår. Kompletterad igår. Fotosession kom ju sen, igår. Svart tusch först, grönt tusch sen. Den har fortsatt även idag, i blått. Men det är inte dokumenterat. Något jag haft på autorepeat som temata att få ihop livet är “topp tre”. Att få de tre viktigaste sakerna gjort varje dag. Så – hur finna de tre största önskningarna, som hänger ihop med allt annat som jag håller för kärt och viktigt i livet? Det är ju så det är – det handlar ytterst om…
