Dave Trott’s blog is compulsive reading, and I could watch his lectures all day. He can teach many of us working in medicine a thing or two about being unreasonably upstream, making sure form follows function, and how to reach a broad audience – a Gall-Peters projection of who our audience really is.
Another creative writer is composer Anouar Brahem, whose Blue Maqams has gripped my attention. This album was recorded May 2017 in Hell’s Kitchen, with Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette, and Django Bates. Brahem was born in Halfaouine and took up the oud at the age of 10. Formative years in Paris followed in 1981-1987. I then found out about Django Bates’ reinterpretation of Sergeant Pepper. These musicians really know how to make an impact and then communicate.
