The gradual production of thoughts when speaking

Happy Epiphany 2022

Like every year, the sixth of January is the moment to wish you all the best for the new year. The sixth of January is Epiphany day – the 12th and last day of Christmas. The holiday season is over, and we can focus on the coming year.

Because epiphany is also an experience of sudden and striking realization.  I have written a little story involving a creative technique that Heinrich von Kleist used two centuries ago. Please find it on the music thinking website, via this link:  “The gradual production of thoughts when speaking“. 

And it is also an announcement about my book coming out in April 🙂

I wish you good luck,
excellent health and
many break-through
epiphanies in 2022

Your playlist for the summer break

Sounds good! 

It’s July, and half of the year is already over. If I could sum up these 6 months in two words, it would be: sounds good.

The journey started with being a guest in several podcasts talking about music thinking, the music thinking framework, the jam cards, creativity, service design, organisational change and branding. And this led to starting a Podcast of my own, The Power of Music Thinking.
I met and spoke with many beautiful minds, experts in their field AND musicians in one or another way. There was a recurring pattern with nearly all of the talks: after we stopped the recording, the conversation went on. It feels like a community of like-minded people, and I feel honoured about this; thank you.

Hier are the links to the conversations on one page to make your summer break inspiring and sound. Direct smartlink to the podcast service of your choice: https://link.chtbl.com/fleQe5kL
