178 — Time Machine Tape Recorder
27-January-1972
(Donnerstag–Thur.)
TRANSCRIPT
Typical school day. As for a concert, saw Pierre
Fournier, cellist (also saw him at MSC), who gave an
excellent recital. I didn’t like the way he did
everything but it was still extremely enjoyable. I
always get a kick out of the way people stand at the
bottom of the stage for the encores. It must make the
performer fell unbelievably good.
Before, went to sight-reading class of Horn Solo Lit.
(mostly that Dr. Paul wrote) with Dr. Paul. It was
so-so. Good ideas though.
REFLECTIONS
A
cello concert. After a
regular day, I get to see an excellent cello concert
by Pierre Fournier. When I say things like “I didn’t
like the way he did everything…,” I wonder exactly
what I was thinking. I’m not a cellist. Perhaps, it’s
just being young and full of opinion.
Time
machine tape recorder. I guess I
would like a time machine tape recorder (like
YouTube, but better quality), where you could dial in
to your past life and see a video of whatever was
happening at that moment. Then I could really figure
out what I was thinking.
I throw out this free business idea to any inventors
out there who would like to capitalize on it.
