In catching the movie Rise Up this past Sunday during the Hot Docs film festival in Toronto I was caught by a sentiment that one of the subjects of the documentary, Turbulence the Future, relayed to the camera. In talking about the musicality of the Island nation, that produces more songs per capita than any other place on earth, Turbulence mentioned that it just "blows in the wind" and that the island's population could not help but be musical. This is a notion that I have often attached to basketball. When one harnesses the power that is on the wind, first having a basic understanding of the mechanics of the game and the physical self, the opportunities for play are seemingly endless. Universal rhythms are at our disposal anytime we need them. Their ebb and flow must simply be tapped, acknowledged and welcomed into the moment. Relaxing with the surrounding game is the best way to truly have a good time and play to the best of your ability.
Available to anyone, regardless of medium.
