Master… of your own heartbeat. (Ben Howard)
If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music. ― Albert Einstein Would you humor me and marinate on that for a bit? I often think in music. I live my daydreams in […]
Oh Oh Oh – We Have Band
