I can relate to what you feel with flowing with a Diablo. I think it is the same feeling as flowing with Poi. It is not necessarily concentrating on it, because flow (at least for me) has more with letting go and just enjoying whatever I am doing with the poi.
Thanks, rezzeJ. Painting puts me in the moment. It's interesting to think how much we value those moments that we are in, yet we spend so much time in anticipation of ones that we are not; and yet every moment is one that can be grasped if we are inclined. Have you ever been in a place with a group of people, even strangers, and it becomes clear that everyone is there? There should be a French phrase for that. It's so rare and wonderful.
That's an interesting question. The easy answer would be when I'm performing with a band or when I've snowboarded/surfed with friends. In fact, my brother and I reminisce about our summers surfing and being in the moment. But it terms of more every day experiences I'm not so sure. Nothing immediatly springs to mind. It's certainly rare like you say.
I'm not quite sure how I managed to read the second question out in the slightly incorrect way that I did. For a second I thought I'd answered "If you could invite anyone from your life to Hubski who would it be? Why?" with "Yes!" Thanks thenewgreen again for putting it together, I loved the music choices. I definitely didn't expect 'Piano Bizness' by Calibre to pop up. It was nice to hear one of the tracks that we worked together on from the Hubski music club too.
You did read it correctly, I lazily had recounted it in the post above from memory. I've corrected it. Did you catch the first song? It's one of my favorite Hubski collaborations. You play a lot on it. I thought your answers were great. I want to know more about the Chinese Yoyo. Do you have any video of your performances? Also, you should play this interview for your pal Joe. -Joe, I look forward to meeting you. Also, thank you for your kind words rezzeJ, I always enjoy our conversations and collaborations. Well done!
I've been messing about with the Diabolo for years, since I was around 10 years old. For the longest time I just liked to throw it as high as I could; that impresses people quite easily. It's only in the last couple of years that I've actually made a concerted effort to build up a repertoire of tricks. I don't have any videos of the moment. Right now I'm working on learning some new techniques and implementing them into my first proper routine. I'll definitely record it and post it up here when it's ready. And yes, I did catch the first song. It's been a while since I've heard that one. I'd forgotten that I'd done drums on one of the collabs!
Diabolo looks pretty rad: Also, by the way, I had always pronounced your username "re-zedge" -That's another cool part of this #meethubski thing is that you can hear someone's intended pronunciation of their username. You're a good drummer btw!
