Weekend Web Developers need some entertainment from time to time. But just as it’s entertaining, the video I’m sharing with you today is also inspiring. It illustrates one of my favorite truisms about the Internet (and the world) and exemplifies what I’m trying to do with one thing new: when someone combines two disparate ideas or skills, they can make a meaningful, cohesive whole from the parts.
In Greg Pattillo’s video, he combines his flute playing with hip-hop-style beatboxing and creates fully arranged songs. It’s an amazing skill, and I couldn’t stop smiling when i found this video for the first time.
His performance inspired me by letting me know that there are other folks out there making “one thing new” all the time. They are creating something totally original from non-original components. It’s a good feeling to know that there might be an audience for my ramblings out there, after all.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
