Detroit is a city of rhythm. From the resonance of automated assembly, to the sounds generated by passionate artists and musicians.
Detroit gave the world music genres like Motown and techno, and exported world-class musicians to other genres like jazz, blues, gospel, rock and hip-hop.
Detroit is the city that not only built cars and companies, but the sounds that revolutionized the world.
Movies:
I watch about 15-20 Documentaries a month.
Television:
I won't touch that shit.
"I like nonsense - it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope... and that enables you to laugh at all of life's realities."
...Dr. Seuss...
Books:
Throughout the years I've found that the teacher's manuals provide the best, and most accurate information.
