As I read, think and have conversations with my peers more questions have risen. I feel the potential topics are starting to show, so I wanted to share some of these thoughts and quotes here as a sort of check point for my ideas.

When does sound become music?
Don’t consume more than you create!
The transformative power of habits on practice/ The importance of discipline in a technological age?
Are we spending too much time listening to over compressed audio from small loud speakers? (appreciate silence)
