When I was in college, I was very fortunate to have Rob Kapilow as a choral conductor and music history professor. Rob has an uncanny knack for boiling down the brilliance of a piece of music so that anyone could hear it in just a short snippet. “Anyone else would have written this,” he’d say, playing four or five bars of familiar but uninspiring music, “but Mozart wrote this.” He’d play the same four or five bars, changing one note, or one chord, or one rhythm, and suddenly you would understand. It was a revelation every time. Rob has gone on to become a star on NPR and PBS, with a series called What Makes It Great.

I’m experimenting with writing a non-work blog, which I’m calling e-Mediate. In addition to the reasons that I list there for starting it, I consider it to be another experiment in trying to get the Web 2.0 thing from the inside of it. (I don’t buy the whole Digital Native thing; even geezers like me should be able to learn this stuff.)??
I’m not sure whether I’m going to find it valuable enough to keep up, so for now, I’m leaving the commenting off. If you have something urgent to say to me about it, feel free to email me, write me on Facebook or <sigh> tweet me. It’s not like I’m hard to reach.
