Laura Victoria Ward is in the studio this month! She is a choreographer, somatic movement educator, musician, painter, performer, and maximalist artist. Her work intersects with ballet, theater, geometry, punk rock, and self-acceptance. And she's so talented at all of it!She is the artistic director of Octavia Cup Dance Theatre, a contemporary ballet company known for creating surreal, expressionistic works that push beyond traditional ballet vocabulary while still remaining in conversation with it. She's also a movement analyst and a somatic movement educator.Laura's work makes space for contradiction, experimentation and complexity through the structure of ballet and the joy of improvisation. We discussed what belonging looks like in dance, and why some of her work wasn't initially well received by audiences and how she pushed past it to create meaningful work that resonates. She also gave advice about connecting with mentors, collaboration and doing work you believe in.

On this episode of the podcast Phillip is joined once again by Mike Justice. Phillip starts the show by reading the general information about the movie with some trivia sprinkled in. It's then time for Listener' Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Then the two discuss 1971's The Mephisto Waltz starring Alan Alda and Jacqueline Bisset. This was a fun little interesting movie, and a great discussion. Then they answer the question of whether they notice anything from this movie that Tarantino might have like or used in a film. They then individually rate the film. Phillip and Mike then answer whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. It's then time for Phil's Film Favorite of the week: Operation Crossbow (1965). Phillip then promotes next week's show when he will be by himself to talk about 1967's Rough Night in Jericho. Thanks for listening.

Hello to you listening in Canberra, Australia! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Here on Whidbey Island our Pacific Rim Institute for Environmental Stewardship is home to prairie, savanna and forest with over 50 species of rare native grasses and flowers including camas. Native across the Pacific Northwest, the stunning violet-blue flowers of camas historically lit up prairies, marshes, and oak savannahs. Camas once dominated open clearings carefully tended by First Nations people to maintain optimal growing conditions. Camas bulbs were dug in the fall and pit roasted to release simple sweet caramelized sugars, providing a staple food for thousands of years. In the early spring there are no camas flowers to be seen. Do the camas exist? Indeed they do but they have not yet manifested. The bulbs are lying in wait for the right blend of sun and warmth and rain to bloom. Practical Tip: We tend to think in terms of something existing or not existing; but that is not reality. When we pay careful attention we discover that what we're waiting for is there, hidden, for when the time is right to manifest. And it will because what we're waiting for is waiting for us. Guaranteed! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Der Anschlag auf das Berliner Stromnetz hat gezeigt, wie verletzlich Versorgungsnetze sein können. Das neue Gesetz zum Schutz kritischer Infrastruktur soll Anlagen und Computernetze widerstandsfähiger machen. Einige Punkte sind aber noch ungeklärt. Waltz, Manuel www.deutschlandfunk.de, Hintergrund
Reed Luplau is in the studio for this mid-month episode! He's a dancer, choreographer, and performer and has built such a multifaceted and versatile career in the performing arts. He trained at the Australian Ballet School and performed with Sydney Dance Company, and he's appeared in the original Broadway casts of Moulin Rouge! The Musical, Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, and the 2015 revival of Fiddler on the Roof. As a choreographer, his work has spanned Broadway, opera, concert dance, large-scale live events, and festivals across the United States and Australia.Now, he's bringing his own work to the stage with the world premiere of How Will I Remember This, a new dance narrative presented by Reed Luplau Works in association with the Institute for American Musical Theatre. This piece is inspired by the history of Eldorado — the legendary queer cabaret nightclub in Weimar, Berlin, shut down by the nazis in 1933. The piece explores memory, identity, loss, and erasure through movement, music, and theatrical storytelling. The production will play for three performances only on May 22, 23, and 24, 2026, at the IAMT Theater in New York City. The link to purchase tickets is below!In this conversation, we talk about Reed's path from ballet to Broadway, the artistic transitions that shaped his career, and why dance became the medium through which he wanted to tell this story. We also talk about starting ballet late, mentorship and accessibility in the performing arts, and the importance of creating more inclusive dance spaces.

Hello to you listening in Lanús, Argentina! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. In my mind's eye I see that child on the Jersey Shore arms spread wide clasping the inflated beach ball to her chest, fingers stretched and gripping, eyes barely peeking over the top. Along comes mom with a triple-decker ice cream cone - 3 scoops - all chocolate. The child wants both: beach ball and ice cream; but can hold only one. Now what? After tears, frustration, stomping around something or someone wins out. Who do you recognize here? Because no matter how old we become some things never change: we want both but have to choose one. The choices we make can become our greatest adventures if we're bold. When we let go of what we're desperately clinging to we might very well end up with the biggest prize of all: the one true life that is meant for us. Story Prompt: Find a memory moment when you were presented with a choice, maybe like the beach ball and ice cream cone. You wanted both; but could have only one. Which did you choose and how come? Write that story and share it out loud! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Hello to you listening in Desert Hot Springs, California! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Recently a friend told me how she felt like a failure because the job she had she didn't want and the job she wanted she didn't get. Now what? What if we choose to look at the lost job opportunity as an experiment that didn't produce the expected results. Does that mean it failed? No. What if we look at the result as information pointing you in a better direction. Dr. Jonas Salk once said, “There is no such thing as a failed experiment, because learning what doesn't work is a necessary step to learning what does.” Or, as the famous American jazz musician Louis Armstrong said, “It's taken me all my life to learn what not to play.” Practical Tip: Think of a time when you believed you had failed but with a little persistence turned the result into an unexpected opportunity. How did you do it? I believe it's because you've got what it takes to experiment! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Hello to you listening in Rabat, Capital of Morocco! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. As the story goes I refused to transition from toddler diapers to toddler big girl pull ups the traditional way. No matter what they promised I was not going to sit on the Little Human pot. I wanted to sit on the Big Human's porcelain throne. Maybe my mother saw genius in my independence or maybe she was just harried with more babies coming along behind me every 18 months or so. She gave in. I did potty training my way. But doing it “my way” didn't happen nearly as often as the story seems to foretell. That little girl's voice got shut down and ignored in the din of other voices, voices of authority, duty, church, obligation, and responsibility. And yet, her voice wasn't gone; it was just gone missing. In time she went looking for it. Named it and claimed it as her own voice. Now she helps professional women change their narrative so they are seen, heard, understood, and listened to. Story Prompt: Somewhere in the long ago you realized that there is no other voice like yours. When did you choose to use it? How did you decide to do it your way, with your voice. Write that story and share it out loud!

Hello to you listening in Muhos, Finland! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. We've had days of continuous rain; but I've discovered an antidote to cabin fever: walking the deep woods on my island. In the forest I'm reminded of the reciprocity of the universe - the give and take between us and the highest of powers. In her book Native: Identity, Belonging, and Rediscovering God Kaitlin B. Curtice asks: “What is it about a walk in the woods to remind us about the reciprocity of the universe? What do I mean? The bloodline of God is connected to everything . . . shells on the ocean shore, the mushrooms growing in the forest, the trees stretching to the clouds, the tiniest speck of snow in the winter, and our dust-to-dustness—we are all connected and tethered to this sacred gift of creation.” [Kaitlin B. Curtice, Native: Identity, Belonging, and Rediscovering God] Question: How does it feel when you are deeply connected, when you know that where you are is where you belong?

"My background as a singer/songwriter often dictates how I start my work, but my affinity for experimental music helps to push my compositions into odd or unusual places."For this composition, The Lech Waltz, I created a simple structure. And yet, it was missing something."That's when I decided to push the entire song a minute or more down the timeline, adding a number of layers and then playing without a click track, mixing in some long drones and melodies."It's become one of my favourite parts of the composition, sounding like what a river feels like."I was thrilled to hear about Salma Caller's idea of sharing small musical moments with other composers on this project. It evokes the connectivity of a river that changes with time."I used a bell-like sound from Giuseppe Cordaro, a sample that I turned into a random, descending 4 note melody. From Salma, a rowing noise became a percussive element."The original field recording (Segment 1) of the Lech River by Riccardo Fumagalli was turned into a lovely, noisy beat."Section of the river Lech reimagined by Bill McKenna. -------Part of Flow, a creative exploration telling the story of a river through the power of sound.

Anne Easterling, founder and director of The Ballet Club, is in the studio this month! The Ballet Club is a New York–based school that Anne launched in 2011 with a mission to make ballet accessible to students of all ages.Anne brings decades of experience to her work as both a performer and educator. She began her professional dance career performing classical and modern repertoire across the United States and Europe, and she also trained as a competitive figure skater. Since then, she's been teaching ballet and developing an approach to training that blends strong classical technique with creativity and individuality.She has an MFA in Dance from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts and has taught at Broadway Dance Center, Ballet Hispánico, Peridance Center, and 92nd Street Y.At The Ballet Club, Anne has created a unique environment welcoming everyone from toddlers as young as 18 months to adult students well into their 70s. Her philosophy centers on the idea that ballet is not just for performance or for a select few, but a lifelong practice that supports both the body and the mind.In this episode, we talk about Anne's journey into dance and how her experiences in both ballet and figure skating shaped her artistic path. We explore her teaching philosophy — including what she means when she says “ballet is for the brain” — and how she approaches working with adult beginners who might feel intimidated or unsure about starting later in life.We also dive into The Ballet Club's curriculum, the importance of staying a student even as a teacher, and why performance opportunities can be transformative for dancers of all ages.For those who are curious about starting ballet as an adult, Anne shares insights into her on-demand course, All You Need to Know Before You Begin Ballet Class, designed to help beginners build confidence, understand the structure of class, and take those first steps in a supportive way.

We're delighted to have had the chance this week, to discuss the book, how retirement in rural Ohio is reflected in some of his recent fiction, and why some stories may not have shown up in any of his collections so far. As always, we hope you enjoy the discussion, and our thanks to Jeff for making the time to talk to us. Order Order Pandemonium Waltz from the publisher (with extra art!)

Hello to you listening in San Luis Potosi City, Mexico! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. “What ever happened to stories of courageous perseverance in the face of impossible odds?” [A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles] They've been shoved aside by likes and Insta-acclaim that's all too easily found on so-called social media. Our lives are steered by uncertainties from the merely inconvenient to the life-altering disruptive. Stories abound in our life circumstances and yet we say, “Why bother with risking the courage to step out, to venture forth, to gather those stories despite the uncertainty?" I'll tell you why! We have a duty to discover and share our stories. For whom? For us! Telling our stories to ourselves helps us understand who we are, make sense of the circumstances of our lives, find meaning in “courageous perseverance in the face of impossible odds.“ You know what I'm talking about. What are you afraid of? Storytelling is about being brave enough, vulnerable enough, authentic enough to face our story, to share our story and if done well will invite our listeners to care. When we share our misfortunes with humor, confidence and ease we can lift others. “Each One Lift One” is the way we've been carried along so that we can do the same for someone else. When someone hears our story they feel hopeful, better. “What! You, too. I though I was the only one!” [C.S. Lewis] Wow! She went through that and she's still standing. I'm not doing so bad after all. Believe it or not that's all it takes: one heartfelt story can change the course of history for a single life. Story Prompt: Think of a time when you were standing on the edge of something and you decided to face impossible odds. What happened then? Write that story & share it out loud! CTA: Want to learn? I can teach you! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us! You will have wonderful company as we continue to walk our lives together. AND!

大家都知道,听爵士乐和研究爵士乐是我的一大爱好之一。在有了女儿之后,琢磨女儿的教育问题也成了我的另一大爱好。而如今,我将两个爱好结合在一起,借助AI(ChatGPT 和 Gemini),发展出了一套爵士乐育儿指南。这是据我所知,全国,乃至全世界,第一份爵士乐育儿指南,敬请收听。节目最后 Tutti 跟女儿一起跳舞的视频可在小红书搜索 Tutti 并关注。今年十一假期,Why for Jazz 联合 SEAIC 法国中欧艺术创新中心发起了一个针对巴黎和波尔多的法国旅行团。我将与建筑艺术学者,我的太太 Tutti 联合带队,深入法国,开启一趟沉浸式的以爵士乐,建筑,红酒和文化学习交流为主线的全景之旅。旅行团即可开始报名,计划招募15位同行者。有兴趣的朋友可以点击上面链接,或直接添加下面二维码进行咨询。期待十一相见。扫码开启法国之旅Playlist of the Show:[23:09] What'd I Say - Ray Charles[26:30] Early Summer - Ryo Fukui[28:52] Hymn to Freedom - Oscar PetersonAI建议的爵士乐育儿歌单(20月龄-36月龄)20个月:高保真钢琴触键(物理建模期) ● 曲目: Midnight Sugar (山本刚), C-Jam Blues (Red Garland), Linus and Lucy (Vince Guaraldi), Bag's Groove (MJQ) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 20个月的孩子,内耳耳蜗的**音调映射(Tonotopic map)**正在进行最后的物理微调。山本刚这类钢琴录音拥有极高的“瞬态响应(Transients)”,每一个音符的起始极其清晰。这种“干净”的声音信号能最大程度减少听觉系统解码的噪音,帮助大脑建立“钢琴”这种复杂音色的高质量统计模型。 ○ 发展心理学: 此时孩子处于感知运动阶段的尾声,通过“敲击”产生的声音最能吸引其注意力。钢琴的打击乐属性最能引起这种因果关系的共鸣。21个月:行走贝斯与前庭系统平衡 ● 曲目: 1. Work Song (Nat Adderley) 2. Killer Joe (Benny Golson) 3. Blues in the Closet (Bud Powell) 4. Strollin' (Horace Silver) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 这一组曲目强调 Walking Bass(行走贝斯)。稳定的、如同心跳般的低音提琴拨奏(Quarter-note pulse)能直接激活基底神经节,这是人类处理节奏与运动控制的核心。 ○ 发育心理学: 21个月的孩子正处于走路重心从摇晃趋向平稳的阶段。这种稳定的低频驱动能与她的身体运动产生神经夹带(Entrainment),通过前庭系统感知重力与节奏的重合,建立起最早的“摇摆感(Swing Feeling)”。22个月:硬波普(Hard Bop)与社交对话逻辑 ● 曲目: 1. Moanin' (Art Blakey) 2. Song for My Father (Horace Silver) 3. The Sidewinder (Lee Morgan) 4. Watermelon Man (Herbie Hancock) 5. What'd I Say (Ray Charles) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 此时孩子正经历语言词汇量的激增,**布罗卡区(Broca's area)**极度活跃。这些曲目中经典的 Call & Response(呼唤与回应) 结构,完美契合了大脑对社交性沟通的生理渴望。 ○ 发育心理学: 此时孩子开始理解“轮流”的概念。通过这种音乐结构,她在无意识中练习了沟通的节奏感,激活了镜像神经元系统,这不仅是音乐启蒙,更是共情能力的早期培养。23个月:Jazz Hip Hop 与持续注意力的构建 ● 曲目: 1. Aruarian Dance (Nujabes) 2. Luv(sic) Part 3 (Nujabes) 3. Waltz for Life Will Born (Uyama Hiroto) 4. Feather (Nujabes) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 稳定的 Loop(循环)能给大脑提供极强的“神经安全性”。当背景节奏是高度可预测的,而上层的钢琴即兴是流动的,这能训练**前额叶皮层(Prefrontal Cortex)**在稳定的背景中提取细微的变化信号。 ○ 发育心理学: 这个阶段孩子开始能进行较长时间的专注游戏。高质量的循环乐句能降低皮质醇水平,延长其**深度探索(Deep Play)**的时间窗口。24个月:奇数拍与认知弹性(两岁里程碑) ● 曲目: 1. Take Five (Dave Brubeck) 2. Unsquare Dance (Dave Brubeck) 3. Blue Rondo à la Turk (Dave Brubeck) 4. Eleven Four (Paul Desmond) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 两岁是突触剪枝(Synaptic Pruning)剧烈发生的节点。如果此时只听 4/4 拍,大脑会认定 5/4 或 9/8 为“不可理解信号”。输入奇数拍是为了保持神经系统的认知弹性(Cognitive Flexibility),训练大脑在不对称中寻找更高阶的数学规律。 ○ 发育心理学: 此阶段孩子自我意识觉醒(Terrible Twos),非对称的节奏正好契合了这种不安分的探索精神,帮助她建立对“不平衡”的心理包容力。第二阶段:和声色彩与审美拓宽(25m - 30m)核心目标: 引入复杂和弦(9, 11, 13音),在听觉皮层建立高维度的“美学坐标系”。25个月:三拍子的流体感知(空间感知进阶) ● 曲目: 1. Waltz for Debby (Bill Evans) 2. Bluesette (Toots Thielemans) 3. Alice in Wonderland (Bill Evans) 4. Up with the Lark (Bill Evans) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 三拍子会强烈刺激小脑的前庭系统。Bill Evans 的“无根音和弦(Rootless Voicings)”让声音听起来是“悬浮”的。根据 Robert Zatorre 的研究,这种高级和声能精细化音调映射(Tonotopic map),训练大脑不依赖低音根音去寻找调性中心。 ○ 发育心理学: 3/4 拍的圆舞曲感能带给孩子优雅、流动的感官体验,有助于精细动作的优雅化发育。26个月:Bossa Nova 与多线信号处理 ● 曲目: 1. The Girl from Ipanema (Stan Getz) 2. Wave (Antônio Carlos Jobim) 3. Desafinado (Stan Getz) 4. Corcovado (Cannonball Adderley) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: Bossa Nova 的底层节奏是平直的八分音符,而上层爵士和弦极其复杂。这种矛盾感要求大脑进行听觉场景解构(Auditory Scene Analysis)。 ○ 发育心理学: 这种轻松的氛围是训练情绪调节(Emotional Regulation)的绝佳工具。在神经科学上,它能激活边缘系统中的愉悦中枢而不产生过度亢奋。27个月:调式爵士(Modal Jazz)与深度观察 ● 曲目: 1. So What (Miles Davis) 2. Maiden Voyage (Herbie Hancock) 3. Little Sunflower (Freddie Hubbard) 4. Flamenco Sketches (Miles Davis) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 调式爵士和弦变化极慢。根据 Bregman 的理论,这种“低变化率”会迫使大脑将注意力转向**音色(Timbre)**的微观纹理。 ○ 发育心理学: 培养“静谧感”。这种音乐能训练孩子在无外部剧烈刺激的环境中进行内在的深度观察,是建立长时注意力的基石。28个月:冷爵士(Cool Jazz)与边缘系统开发 ● 曲目: 1. My Funny Valentine (Chet Baker) 2. You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To (Art Pepper) 3. Autumn Leaves (Cannonball) 4. Django (MJQ) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 略带忧郁、克制的音色能激活**边缘系统(Limbic system)**中的杏仁核与海马体连接。研究表明,幼儿能感知到音乐中的哀伤情绪,这能丰富其大脑的情感皮层。 ○ 发育心理学: 28个月的孩子开始萌发初级共情。通过理解音乐中的“忧郁”,她在学习处理复杂的人类情感。29个月:Bebop 与神经放电频率挑战 ● 曲目: 1. Scrapple from the Apple (Charlie Parker) 2. A Night in Tunisia (Dizzy Gillespie) 3. Donna Lee (Charlie Parker) 4. Salt Peanuts (Dizzy Gillespie) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 极速音阶挑战了听觉神经元的放电频率(Firing Rate)。这是一种神经层面的“高强度间歇训练(HIIT)”,旨在提高大脑对高密度信息的即时处理带宽。 ○ 发育心理学: Bebop 的多变与灵动契合了孩子此时精力旺盛、喜欢探索事物边界的行为逻辑。30个月:日本爵士 - 叙事建模(情感深度期) ● 曲目: 1. Early Summer (Ryo Fukui) 2. Scenery (Ryo Fukui) 3. Blow Up (Isao Suzuki) 4. Girl Talk (Tsuyoshi Yamamoto) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: J-Jazz 具有独特的旋律线条。30个月的孩子正致力于将碎片化的信息拼凑成故事,此时大脑的**默认模式网络(DMN)**开始在音乐欣赏中起作用。 ○ 发育心理学: 建立文化认同感。通过这些具有东方美学色彩的爵士乐,她在潜意识中完成了一种审美的文化建构。第三阶段:结构解构与即兴逻辑(31m - 36m)核心目标: 识别主题与变奏的边界,培养长时记忆与宏观思维构架。31个月:人声爵士与语言-音乐桥梁 ● 曲目: 1. L-O-V-E (Nat King Cole) 2. Cheek to Cheek (Fitzgerald & Armstrong) 3. Fly Me to the Moon (Sinatra) 4. How High the Moon (Ella Fitzgerald) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: SSIR 假说(Shared Syntactic Integration Resource)指出,语言与音乐共享神经资源。此时利用人声爵士独特的韵律感(Prosody),可以极大地加速她对词汇节拍的内化。 ○ 发育心理学: 模仿是此阶段的核心。Scat(拟声唱法)能锻炼她口腔肌肉的精细化控制,对发音清晰度有显著提升作用。32个月:工作记忆与“主题追踪” ● 曲目: 1. St. Thomas (Sonny Rollins) 2. Moritat (Sonny Rollins) 3. Cantaloop (Us3) 4. Mercy, Mercy, Mercy (Cannonball) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 训练工作记忆(Working Memory)。大脑需要记住开头的“主题(Hook)”,并在复杂的即兴独奏中,保持对这个逻辑原点的潜意识追踪。 ○ 发育心理学: 训练解决问题的策略——在复杂变幻的环境中寻找“恒定点”。33个月:拉丁爵士(Latin Jazz)与听觉分流 ● 曲目: 1. Mambo Inn (George Shearing) 2. Manteca (Dizzy Gillespie) 3. Afro Blue (Mongo Santamaría) 4. Tequila (Wes Montgomery) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 拉丁爵士包含大量的多声部打击乐。根据 Bregman 的理论,这要求大脑完成最高难度的流提取(Stream Segregation)。 ○ 发育心理学: 狂欢节般的节奏能释放孩子的压力,增强其在运动中的爆发力与协调性。34个月:现代融合(Fusion)与认知弹性 ● 曲目: 1. Spain (Chick Corea) 2. Birdland (Weather Report) 3. Chameleon (Herbie Hancock) 4. 500 Miles High (Chick Corea) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 引入非自然音色(合成器)。大脑需要重新识别这些信号,刺激腹侧注意网络(Ventral Attention Network)。 ○ 发育心理学: 培养对新奇事物的包容度,不让其听觉审美固化在单一的木质乐器上。35个月:极限和声(Coltrane Changes)算法建模 ● 曲目: 1. Giant Steps (John Coltrane) 2. Naima (John Coltrane) 3. Speak No Evil (Wayne Shorter) 4. Round Midnight (Thelonious Monk) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: Coltrane Changes 是爵士乐中最复杂的数学矩阵。此时输入这种极限逻辑,就像是在给计算机预装最强的算法底座,挑战其处理信息的深度。 ○ 发育心理学: 训练对“高张力”的承受力。在极度复杂的声音中寻找内在平衡,是培养未来演奏家“大将之风”的必经之路。36个月:自由即兴与全球脑连接(启蒙圆满) ● 曲目: 1. Rhapsody in Blue (Gershwin) 2. Hymn to Freedom (Oscar Peterson) 3. The Köln Concert (Keith Jarrett) 4. My Favorite Things (Coltrane 1961) ● 深度分析: ○ 脑神经科学: 激活默认模式网络(DMN)。这种长篇幅、大跨度的自由即兴曲目,能让大脑在不同脑区间建立长程连接,实现想象力与自我意识的统一。 ○ 发育心理学: 此时她已经拥有了一套完整的“爵士底层操作系统”。无论以后学不学琴,这套系统都将成为她认知世界、理解“自由”的底色。

Hello to you listening in Thune, Switzerland! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Maybe like me you've asked a friend for help in your hour of need. What did you get? “Just tie a knot in the end of your rope and hold on to that.” Sure, with enough rope to tie a knot and enough strength to hold on you might be okay; but what if nothing is all you have? Imagine this: 6 women and 2 young guides high in the frigid and snowy Canadian Rocky Mountains on an Outward Bound mountaineering expedition. Our task was to scale the face of a mountain in pairs by climbing, using strength, handholds, and the safety ropes the guides had secured far above us and out of sight beyond a cliff edge. Climbing up my partner froze dangling between the top and the rocky ground below. She stammered out: “I can't find anything to hold on to.” Time passed. And then the voice of one of our guides called out, “Grab it with both hands!” It worked! She got all the way to the top! And, rappelled back down! I can still see that smile of accomplishment on her astonished face when her boots touched the ground. But how did she do it? My partner found the help she was looking for- inside herself. She discovered a secret: when you can't find anything to hold on to, grab it with both hands! It works! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Hello to you listening in Sussex Inlet, New South Wales! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Long long ago and far far away someone you love was born and began a life. Maybe it was you or a parent or a sibling, a friend, your partner. Do you know their story? Do they know yours? This is a very good time to collect those stories. Weekly on Story Prompt Friday I offer a bit of story and a prompt to get you started, either sitting with someone and collecting a story as part of the oral tradition or maybe for yourself as a way to spark your own writing. Story Prompt: What is the best sunrise you ever witnessed? Where were you? Who was with you? Or were you alone? What did the air feel like? What did you smell and hear? What brings the memory alive for you today? Write that story and share it out loud! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Hello to you listening in Greeley, Colorado! Coming to you from Whidbey Island Washington, this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. I believe that our November to May Rain Festival is nearly over. Here in the Pacific Northwest we welcome clear skies, sunshine, warm weather, less winter burden, and maybe even dropping our shoulders from the habitual “fight or flight” response to the world that continues spinning on an axis of uncertain madness. Habit. It's like that story about a team of pack animals struggling their way up a mountainside. The last pony in line was wearing a saddle but the horse just ahead of him was burdened with boxes and bags and baskets. The pony said: Good grief, what a heavy load you're carrying! The horse turned it's head and asked: What load? Like that horse we get used to carrying so much we don't even realize it. Practical Tip: Right now, in this moment stop, take a few deeps breaths, gently ease your shoulders away from your ears and smile to them; thank them for what they've been carrying for you and tell them that in the future you will take care to burden them less. Then wait for a moment while they smile back at you. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

2026 Show Notes Addendum: To round out our second (and final) visit to the realm of backwards VGM (and very closely related non-VGM) on Nerd Noise Radio, let's replay the 2020 original series, which was also a two-parter, but instead of being two "equal billing" parts, it was a one part "episode proper" and then a supplemental Ch F "F-isode" bonus. In addition to being one of my all-time favorite projects to work on in show history, the series also marked an important turning point in show history as the first installment was our last ever NNR broadcast on the main feed to be produced in GarageBand on MacOS (except for the deliberate call-back that was C1E75 in 2023), and the F-isode was my first ever production in Audacity and Ardour in Linux (then Ubuntu Studio (KDE), now, Fedora (GNOME)). Original Show Notes below are largely faithful to the original with one MASSIVE exception: the tracklist is now populated with all the relevant track info, where it was originally withheld to keep the mystery and mystique alive. Lastly: in case anyone is wondering what on earth is happening in the outro: I figured since it would be backwards, and nobody would ever hear it forward unless they either took the initiative to reverse the file themselves, or else find the [quote] "UNBACKED" version on Archive.org, they'd never know what on earth was being said, I decided to forego the standard outro script, and just go nuts. I read a chocolate chip cookie recipe I found online on the spot, and included snippets from every previous episode blooper reel in show history to that point as well as various other sound clips, such as slow-mo vids of my kids, and fresh snippets provided by my brother-in-law Brian Peterson. Anyway, that's what's happening in the outro. I wanted it to be as preposterous and baffling and chaotic as possible! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original Show Notes (modified to show track names on 04/20/2026): ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Today's broadcast is C1E52 for Wayback Wednesday, April 1st, 2020. It's April 1st, dear listeners, and we haven't had a retrospective in AGES! In such dark, uncertain days as we face today, it's extra important to have a look back at brighter, clearer, saner days as a reminder that as the wheel of time continues to churn, we will inexorably find our way back. So, sit back and relax as we travel back through 2hrs 25min, and 56 sec of Nerd Noise History and Nostalgia on a program we're calling “Backtracks”.

Guest Host: Terry Slatic U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz said that bombing Iran’s bridges and power plants would not constitute a war crime, defending President Trump’s threat to target Iranian infrastructure if diplomacy fails. Waltz argued that much of Iran’s infrastructure has dual military use, making it a legitimate target under the laws of war, while critics warned such strikes could cause massive civilian harm. The Pentagon says its review of the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan is nearly complete, with a final report expected soon. The investigation examines decision‑making leading up to the 2021 evacuation, including security failures during the Abbey Gate bombing that killed 13 U.S. service members. A Gold Star father whose son was killed in the 2021 Abbey Gate bombing says a previous Pentagon review of the Afghanistan withdrawal “smelled like a cover‑up,” as a new investigation takes a much deeper look at what happened. The new Pentagon review panel has examined more than 9 million documents, compared with about 3,000 in the earlier review, and is preparing a final report expected in the coming months. An Italian bank has begun accepting Parmigiano Reggiano (Parmesan cheese) as collateral for loans, recognizing the cheese’s high and stable value. Because the cheese has protected designation of origin (PDO) status and increases in value as it ages, banks can securely store it while producers access cash during long aging periods.

Jeffrey BiegelTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Grammy winning classical concert pianist, and national treasure Jeffrey Biegel. In this episode, Jeffrey and I chat about his learning how to play piano from some of the greatest teachers in the history of the instrument, what he chose to go the classical route instead of a more pop focus, and some of his inspirations. Jeffrey shares stories involving Billy Joel, Morton Estrin, Lalo Schifrin, Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, the late Neil Sedaka, Liberace, Peter Tork, the late Richard Lewis, Lucy Arnaz Luckinbill, Lucille Ball, Dan Lauria, Barry Manilow, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Peter Boyer. This episode is a walk down Memory Lane, as well as Fascination Street! We discuss some of the orchestras and symphonies Jeffrey has played with and continues to play with. Then we talk about some of his own projects, and why they are so important to him. Jeffrey shares some insight on projects like: Waltz of Hope I & II, Reflection of Freedom (JFK), Reflection of Equality (MLK), Rhapsody in Red, White and Blue, The Millenium Project, and so much more. I cannot stress enough how grateful I am to Jeffrey for sitting down with me on his way to teach a Master Class in Wichita. Thank you, Jeffrey, you are a MENSCH!
Hello to you listening in Cortland, New York! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. As the story goes the miracle of a human birth is as rare as a blind turtle that swims through the ocean surfacing once every 100 years and happens to raise its head through a single ring of seaweed randomly floating on the water. Equally rare is the opportunity to be living through cataclysmic crises capable of shifting a whole civilization. Internal changes, external pressures or environmental collapse have shifted whole civilizations. Crises are unfolding right before our very lives. Strange to think, “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before.” [2008 Rahm Emanuel chief of staff to President Barack Obama] That being true, how might we exploit these cataclysmic crises instead of letting them go to waste? We start small. Each one doing just one thing beautifully. Why? Small actions done consistently with curiosity, compassion, and hope have the collective power to change the course of history!

This week on Face the Nation, the fight over the Strait of Hormuz could threaten the fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran. The short-term truce in the war with Iran is holding — for now — but tensions are escalating over the status of the vital waterway where around 20% of the world's oil and energy supplies travel through. Iran again closing it to ships this weekend, and firing at vessels attempting passage. We get the latest from U.N. Ambassador Mike Waltz. Former White House adviser on energy security Amos Hochstein will also join us with analysis on how the war continues to spike energy prices. Meanwhile, new developments in what the president calls his push to make America healthy again — an executive order loosening restrictions on psychedelic drug and a new pick for head of the CDC. We ask former U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams to explain it all. We also hear from former Attorney General Eric Holder on the latest in the partisan fight over redistricting. Plus, we check in on Pope's Leo tour through Africa, as he downplays his dispute with President Trump.

Hello to you listening in the Town of Flower Mound, Texas! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for a story) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Long ago, Father Sky gave Anansi the spider a large clay pot. This pot contained all the wisdom in the world - every secret, every solution, every insight that had ever been or ever would be. Anansi was thrilled. He clutched the pot close to his chest and began climbing up the tallest tree in the forest, thinking he would hide the pot at the very top where only he could reach it. All that wisdom would be his alone. But as he climbed the pot grew heavier and heavier. Wisdom kept spilling over the sides and falling like rain on the forest floor below. The harder Anansi tried to hold onto the pot and the tree the more wisdom fell to earth. From far below his young son called up: "Father, wouldn't it have been easier to tie the pot to your back?” Anansi stopped climbing. His own child had wisdom he didn't possess. He looked down at the forest floor where the spilled wisdom was taking root: flowers of understanding blooming, streams of compassion flowing, creatures gathering to drink from pools of imagination that sparkled in the sunlight. In that moment, Anansi knew he was wrong. He hurled the pot down from the tree where it shattered on the forest floor. All the wisdom scattered to the winds, settling into every corner of the world. That is why the old ones say no one person holds all the wisdom. It lives in each of us, waiting to be shared, waiting to be joined with others, waiting to become something greater than any one person could create alone. Story Prompt: What is the singular wisdom that you hold in your story that is ready to be shared? Write that story and tell it out loud!

Hello to you listening in Lopez Island, Washington! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Why is my Quarter Moon Story Arts logo a lighthouse? I was inspired! Admiralty Head Lighthouse here on Whidbey Island served as a critical navigational guide back in the day of sailing ships traveling from the Pacific Ocean through the treacherous Strait of San Juan de Fuca. Sixteen miles from Admiralty Inlet ship captains could see the white light in the darkness warning them to steer a hard right to starboard, avoid the cliffs, and continue safely south through Puget Sound and on to Seattle. How did the captain know he was seeing Admiralty Head Lighthouse? Each lighthouse - no matter where in the world - has its very own distinctive light pattern, or signature, like an address on a house. Lighthouses mark points of navigation, warn about dangerous coastlines, and guide ships into safe harbor. But harbors are not created equal. Different harbors for different boats. A lighthouse stationed at a harbor entrance doesn't run up and down the coast beckoning all boats to its harbor. It serves a particular sized boat. Lighthouses don't chase boats; why do you chase clients? Question: What is it only you have to offer? Who needs and wants it? Who is meant to be drawn to your harbor? How will you attract your particular client with your own distinctive beacon of light? And, how will they know you are signaling them? CTA: If you could use a hand with your lighthouse questions, email me at info@quartermoonstoryarts.net and we'll get working on the answers.
