Honourable Members of the council..

Do you remember the fights between members of Indonesian Representative Council which happened years ago ??, it was so rediculous and some people maybe said its because the culture of Indonesian…..but it was so funny to saw this abroad too, so I guess it was distroying the myths about western is more civilized than Indonesian….

Just see this… a picture from news paper that I saw at the airport…..

Ok, let me know…are all politicians just like them??…cause I’m studying policy, and I don’t want to be like them….he…he….

Music Addiction

Its all began when I’ve already stuck with my thesis proposal, I was trying to find something that could inspire me and give me energy. One of the many things that cross in my mind is instrumental music, I love them a lot….it was started with the work from Mozart, at first I didn’t like the music, but I was only interested on the effect if we listening to such music. They said it could increase your concentration, make you relaxed…. even came to my thoughts on the theoretical system on how classical music could increase you brain productivity.Classical music has good rhythms, at some point it will make your blood run so fast due to the wave resonance delivered to your brain, and in other point, it make your blood flow so slow and relaxed. The intensity of changes in vessel will increase its elasticity and it will be easier for blood cell to run through your vessel when the brain need a lot of oxygen which delivered by the blood cell. Why does brain need oxygen? Just like any other cell, they need oxygen for combusting the nutrition’s brought also by blood cells to be energy in order to do their functions.

Anyhow, back to the instrumental music. After Mozart, I’m starting to admire a lot of other instrumental music, e.g. music’s by Kitaro (which sound creepy), then turn to unusual music like the one brought by Enya. After Enya I was addicted to Canon in D Major by Pachelbel, which used as a soundtrack for a Korean movie titled My Sassy Girl (Korean movie are always amazing, other time I will write something about this). Canon in D Major was a hit, and musicians have already played it with a lot of various music instruments, what I like the most is the Rock version. Well, everything’s is coming back to the objective of finding emotional peace (do I have emotional disorder so I always looking for emotional peace??!!), then few months ago I was starting to look for music arranged by Deep forest, they arranged good indigenous music’s in a modern way. I fell to Deep forest actually due to the video of Matt Harding, who used their music as his video soundtrack (still an amazing video for me, despite the quality of the picture).

Long way after that then I’ve found musician like Michael Nyman, Yanni, Yann Tiersen, etc. at imeem.com, still with the same reason to find emotional peace. And now I’m addicted to their music, I’ve played their music over and over, more then I’ve played my play lists of Rock Alternative. And I’ve promised my self to put the biography about these kinds of musicians in my blog due to their music, AMAZING music.

Well, enjoy the music’s that I’ve enjoyed a lot……
