Thank you again for a very inspiring lesson. I've recently looked at your News' web page, didn't see any upcoming Topicals, so have taken the opportunity to book another lesson with you. Would Thursday June 3 at 5pm Scotland Time work for you?
I think it's Gordon Duncan and Stuart Liddell 'sounds' - bagpiping-wise - that I'm seeking to play anew on the Scottish small pipes. How to develop my piping (extraordinarily) with Duncan's energy and your musicality and expressiveness (and your extraordinary technique too)? And how best to chart out goals re these Guidelines again - http://scottmacleod.com/GuidelinesPracticingMusicalInstrument.htm - items 2 &3 (and even writing them in my daily Google calendar) - and with an hour or two of practicing daily, I wonder? (I have the impression that competitions and performance have helped you structure in a focused way your daily playing remarkably, and re such goals too; n'est-ce pas?)
'Grey seal: Gordon Duncan and Stuart Liddell 'sounds' - bagpiping-wise? That is 'vision' . . . "Honey in the Bag" upcoming Scottish small pipes' album * * How to help people "purr" - like a cat (neurophysiology-wise, ie in your brain / bodymind) - with my "Honey in the Bag" album, is a sound I'm heading for :)' (from ... Tuesday, March 31, 2020)
So with my Light Music playing, how to potentially rerecord my Honey in the Bag album newly afire with inspiration and generating great neural pleasure - bliss even - for listeners? And can I learn this from you? (Am revisiting recordings of lessons with Connor in part for this :)
And with my upcoming Piobaireachd album (as experiment too), which tunes to play, most beautiful and melodic and lyrical to my ear - and thus fun to develop (as mainly laments), I'm asking myself? Piobaireachd is an acquired taste like single malt whiskey perhaps. (How best to listen to much Piobaireachd to find the beauties to my ear, like 'The Desperate Battle of the Birds' for me, I wonder? Thoughts?)
And here again is a favorite playing of mine of a favorite Piobaireachd composition -
(And coming back to an old abstract and theoretical question of mine - what makes a piping tune beautiful, structurally in a sense, described in words? (eg why are the tunes on my 'Honey in the Bag' album all lovely - and to my ear too)? And what is beauty in general, philosophically, and what is beauty in piping compositions AND playing - like yours (and possibly also for a wide swath of pipers' listening - or possibly regarding a certain group too of 'classic' or 'old favorite' tunes (here are some previous EXPLORATIONS of this thinking - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/09/monotropa-uniflora-piobaireachd.html)
Here below are Notes from the first part of the lesson video recording which 'spoke' to me in particular.
And thank you, Stuart!
Warm regards, Scott
Regarding creating Piobaireachd albums -
4:40 I ask about learning further as favorite piece -
The Desperate Battle of the Birds
Feedback about the album I made
5:10
In terms of structure, I do make it up as I go along, and in my
... and the in the band ...
5:20
It was really just achieving small goals as they approached us ...
It's a good idea to have a structure ... everybody
dramatic, lyrical
6:20
One of my favorites would be lament for the Laird of
Lyrical
The Laird of Anapool’s Lament – Piobaireachd Society 9
Stuart Liddell plays Lament for the Laird of Anapool Piobaireachd at the Glenfiddich Piping Championship 2015
Do you fancy playing a little of The Desperate Battle of the Birds
10:35
The beauty of music is that these great pieces you can make your own, by little subtle differences, and how you feel and hear the music yourself, so it's nice to have guides from these great players
But you know, you're trying to present music through your own feeling, again ...

I begin to play The Desperate Battle of the Birds

Recent studies have suggested that human observers influence chimpanzee behaviour. One suggestion is thatdrones, camera traps and remote microphones should be used to record and monitor chimpanzees rather than direct observation.[75]
Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from around 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time travelling in small, temporary groups consisting of a few individuals, which may consist of any combination of age and sex classes. Both males and females sometimes travel alone.[52]Thisfission-fusion societymay include groups of four types: all-male, adult females and offspring, both sexes, or one female and her offspring. These smaller groups emerge in a variety of types, for a variety of purposes. For example, an all-male troop may be organised tohuntfor meat, while a group consisting of lactating females serves to act as a "nursery group" for the young.[76]
And in a related vein in an email to Sri Lanka World Univ & India World Univ (which Lydia also received) -
Hi Sri Lanka World Univ & Sch, India World Univ, Universitians, All,
When might we all be able to buy things with our accumulating free 'Stanford Mine Pi' cryptocurrency on smartphones - and even by simply using a Google Pay or Apple ioS pay application? How much would we have to accumulate in each of our countries to buy a house, for example? And could we accumulate Pi currency faster beyond daily mining of it?
Spreading 'Stanford Mine Pi' - and getting central banks in most of 200 countries to legitimize it - could come to eliminate poverty worldwide pretty quickly, and especially if the poorest people had devices that could access Stanford Mine Pi. How to connect such "Stanford Mine Pi" with open wiki teaching and learning at WUaS - and in all 7,139 living languages? How to begin to reach out to all 7.8 billion people on the planet re - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and in all 7k languages, so they could come out of poverty, and wiki teach and learn with each other?
For your Sri Lankan friends and friends potentially in all the 200 countries in the world, here's the daily mineable free cryptocurrency, - Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency. Use this code - sgkmac - minepi.com/sgkmac

Wenn Sie potenzielle Doktoranden in Deutschland kennen, die an einem Studium am MIT OCW interessiert sein könnten, scheint Aviv in Indonesien auch einen weiteren Weg zum PhD-Programm in Statistik und Wirtschaftswissenschaften vom MIT selbst gefunden zu haben (sehe MIT OCW und MIT PhD-Programm unten).
Alles Gute, Scott

Hello Sir, thank you for this email. I'm really looking forward to taking my first year in #WUaSPhDdegrees. I'm interested to take these courses:
We can do yoga on the lawn looking at the mountain & some possible parables of the gene too! :)
Hi Ma, All,
Heats been off for a week or two in a sense, after I passed the rolling radiator back to landlord, and got a stand up fan heater instead - which I use almost never. This is California in a basement so I can survive mostly under bed covers in May & through some of the summer I'm here too I think ... But it's cold all the time. And while I kept the rolling radiator on low throughout the winter, it meant their energy bill was higher than before (yet they benefited too from the rising warmth), and get the basement place was bearable. I pay a lot of money in rent ... So it's not a great deal or situation ... And it's time perhaps to start planning to get a house somewhere 🙂 per chance ... And could I come into a nice house from the state of California even? ... Moving from one 'safe house' to a new real 'SAFE HOUSE' that opened up newly for some unknown reason - perhaps in the SF Bay Area or even in another state. (Did my Scottish Small Piping student Taylor somehow move into a 'safe house' for a song in Georgia, after moving from SF I wonder? He and his wife also moved east to be near his wife's family, - and they just had their first baby too).
And how to seek & find an attractive great fit life partner wife to begin with too - to begin a family of three or so kids?
.... and all regarding World Univ & Sch developments too. NO to Canyon (but maybe federal US authorities can do something about a Canyon 'cleanup' thanks to my whistle-blowing, just not for my living there, and wisely - thank you, Ma!). But how to plan the next step, and possibly not alone (and possibly with regard also to creating an Actual-Virtual Physical-Digital realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs field site too, for my next book published from text in the sidebar in Google Street View in many languages) - so with all of you? :) Since World University and School hasn't become operational yet in about 14 years, am quite impoverished to say the least. But how to start developing also some faculty housing for example?
The weather is finally changing here in New York but this morning we were both working in sweaters. We saw that you are going to Cuttyhunk this summer. We are planning to head up to New Hampshire in about month. We will both be working from home until they call us back to the office. Henry thinks he will be able to go back in September, but there will continue to be ample opportunity to work from home if he wants. My job is remote anyway . Come up to visit us in Randolph. It is probably a 2 or 3 hour drive from Mass.
We can do yoga on the lawn looking at the mountain!
Happy Memorial Day!
Victoria and Henry

Hi Victoria and Henry,
Thank you! Sounds like fun! Glad the weather is changing for you! And if you might be able to fit it in, please come visit me on Cuttyhunk - a ferry leaves from the beautiful (downtown) whaling city of New Bedford, or a boat from nearby also beautiful Padanaram, MA - and I'm hoping to be there on and off for the month of July. (Yoga explorations in VT sound fun too ~ http://scottmacleod.com/yoga.htm).

Hi Henry, Janie, All,
NH! (There's a Randolph in VT, and another in MA too ... so many :) ... It would be nice to see you this summer in Randolph, Henry, and please come visit on Cuttyhunk too!
In talking with my mother yesterday evening about things genetic (see too email below), I mentioned this recent great Genetics' embryonic (in China too) conversation with Stanford Law Prof Hank Greely, and Stu McNish in Vancouver British Columbia -
I'm on a podcast, "Conversations that Matter" with a fun, 23 minute discussion of "stuff" - mainly CRISPR People but not entirely. https://t.co/lPUmvJVk25
(Could Stuart McNish be related to the former General Secretary of Quaker Nobel Prize winning AMERICAN FRIENDS' SERVICE COMMITTEE Mary Ellen McNish?)
(BUT TO WHAT DEGREE COULD THIS GREELY INTERVIEW ALSO BE A PARABLE IN PART, OF A SORT?)
Greely also mentions "renegades, or cowboys and rogues" (and not outlaws, criminals, and scofflaws) at the 20 minute mark - which cast of characters seems somehow apropos also for Canyon 94516 - somewhere else in interview he mentions safe gene editing (and not 'cleaning up' the genetics' industry in all ~200 countries, for ex.) ... (Maybe just maybe Stanford Law is thinking, too, knowledgeably about Canyon 94516 ... ) ...Greely is amazingly brilliant and clear about genetic implications for humans here.
How to find a safe HOUSE to live in too?
Scott
PS
'Parable' and second half of this email thread from yesterday ... In daily blog ...
Re genetics' conversation with mother yesterday, re 'unconscious' too
Thanks Ma so much for talking yesterday.
You are wonderful ! Seemed to have touched base with your talking 'unconscious' mind in a new way - and about things medical too. Seems to be a mother thing culturally in part to want their children to get vaccinated currently (even though it's not the law) - and perhaps a son thing here to seek for family members to be law-abiding, I think.
We talked about SARS CoV2 by extension, and the recent Covid-19 pandemic genes, HIV, and Polio on the VIRUS side of life, and about Tuberculosis (TB) and Diptheria-Tetanus-Pertussis (DPT) on the BACTERIA side of life ... about Dad too as Secretary of Health in Pennsylvania in 1979 working with the Amish regarding polio vaccines to eradicate polio in the state of PA.
MD psychiatry therapist for my offspring when they become teens - when psychotherapy could work in their teens (possibly pre skepticism) - & to prepare them for life to come in smart ways as adults? Could be good to somehow meet and marry a 25-28 year old attractive (radiantly warm earth mother kind of woman?) MD ! ... Could THUS potentially marry great caring smart ethics as a consequence. :)
Glad to have received an invitation from Henry and Victoria to visit them in Randolph NH WHEN I'm back east! :) And see you soon.
More about exploring the unconscious mind below. Appreciating my daily (yoga) meditation - beneficial inner bodymind releasing action, relaxation response-wise - with regards to the unconscious mind too. :)
Love, Scott

The parable of the gene and Yoga?here, at bottom - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/05/javan-pond-heron.html
Am wondering however, whether this might be part parable too - and regarding the Genetic Engineering Revolution, in which we're living into the 7th or 8th decade (since 1953 and the discovery of DNA)
Conversations That Matter: CRISP People with guest Henry T. Greely, by Stuart McNish
. . . a bit like this parable too , at bottom here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/05/javan-pond-heron.html.. which I've given a new name: "The parable of the gene-meme SACRS CoV2" - or - "The parable of the gene" for short, or "The parable of the gene and Yoga" ...
