“What I love most about playing in front of people has something to do with a certain kind of energy exchange. The attention and appreciation of my audience feeds back into my playing. It really seems as if there is a true and equal give and take between performer and listener, making me aware of how much I depend on my audience. And since the audience is different every night, the music being played will differ too. Every space I performed in has its own magic and spirit.” PeopleIfsGivingKindDifferentSeemsSpiritNightCertainEnergySpaceAttentionAudienceMagicFrontsDependsEqualMusic IsAppreciationPerformersEvery NightListenersGive And TakeBeing Played Author:Nils Frahm
“Agential realism is not a manifesto, it does not take for granted that all is or will or can be made manifest.

“While it does, and should, feel good to be appreciated by another person, if you are dependent upon their appreciation to feel good, you will not be able to consistently feel good, because no other person has the ability, or a responsibility, to hold you as their singular, positive object of attention. Your Inner Being, however, the Source within you, always holds you, with no exceptions, as a constant object of appreciation. So if you will tune your thoughts and actions to that consistent Vibration of Well-Being flowing forth from your Inner Being-you will thrive under any and all conditions.” IfsFeelsShouldWellsPersonsDoeAbleActionAbilityAttentionResponsibilityConditionsObjectsSourceConstantAppreciationFeel GoodWell BeingConsistentDependentTunesThriveExceptionWithin YouConsistentlyAppreciatedVibrationsThoughts And Actions Book:The Vortex: Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships Source: The Vortex: Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships
