Bassist/Composer/Educator
The subject of the psychology of performance has interested me more than anything in the past few years. The reason behind this is that I believe that all the trouble that I've encountered as a musician (fears, creative blocks, procrastination...) are products of my own thoughts and because of bad directions from some of my teachers.
For the research side of my Master's degree, I set out to observe my mental activity, conscious and unconscious, collecting data from related literature and scientific research, and finally attempted to reprogram my thought patterns to work for me, rather than against me.
The end product is what is called a "reflective practitioner" research paper entitled "Freeing the Creative Mind". If you would like to read it, I can e-mail you a copy. All you need to do is go to the 'Contact' page on this website and send me a message request.
