​@Zoew_june Yeah why not?

I'm eternally grateful that I get to age with this man in this life.

I love music but I've been burned out by life and in survival mode a long time. Watching Jacob speak and perform on YT has honestly brought something alive in me again. I feel like my teenage self who played french horn in middle school and wanted to become a songwriter. I find myself hanging on his every word, even the ones I don't comprehend. It's like magic. I'm so thankful. I wrote a song yesterday and that hasn't happened in awhile.

That section blew my mind... he describes the situation presupposing a duality of "sense" and "nonsense". Do people usually silo the 2, like he describes? To me, it's always been more of, like, a Venn diagram, and I've tried to remain in the middle, artistically... nonsense that makes sense to me, sort of. As for why, maybe there was a Cheshire Cat influence, and also growing up in a cognitive dissonance culture, while staying sane... It seemed to be normal for people to accept that nonsense makes perfect sense, in so many areas of life. But Jacob described it as a dichotomy. I suppose he's trying to get people to go beyond their comfort zones, by this statement - try things that don't make sense TO YOU, assuming that you're coming from such a limited perspective that almost any branching out will be good. I think that IS the case, in many instances. I think it's an oversimplification, but he doesn't have the time for one-on-one mentorship of the students asking questions.

I just dedicated a page in my music journal to what he said. "Embrace the nonsense!"

Over and over with Jacob's working with the audience, I'm reminded how powerfully emotional it is when we sing together.

26:58 “In some ways what other people think about you is not really your business. But your business is to be you to the fullest most expounded extent.”

This person is precious.

Music is medicine, healing on physical, mental and spiritual level. It’s how Source communicates through us, it’s what connects us and brings us in flow, in eternal togetherness. Jacob for me is here to remind us I think. He is here and now, like a channel for Love and connection. He makes me a better person and helps me overcome performance anxiety. Now I enjoy playing saxophone and singing when there’s crowd around.

Oh my gosh… That choir intro moved me to tears. Jacob’s answers, so often, address the different questions in the same way, again and again: embrace your Weird, your inner fool, your child within. Him sitting cross legged on that armchair, wearing sox, and two different ones :) He has managed to free himself from all the constraints and expectations of society, and we’re all so lucky for it 💛 His maturity in how he’s been thinking and probing almost every question humanly possible, is mind boggling to me. I loved the flower analogy, makes perfect sense to me. And yet, with all this sophistication, there also is an absolute vulnerability, simplicity and innocence about him 🌸 Jacob the man and what he does, I feel, is all about love 💛 Love of people, love of music and love of life. Thanks for conducting and posting this talk. And yes, great and lovely questions, too! 🙏

Something about coming together and creating a vibration not just through our energies but with our voices. It’s very powerful that it brings you to tears when you’re just listening. This is one of the main reasons why I loved being in choir and going to camps because when we all come as one and create a sound so beautiful that resonates within the soul. This man is not only a music genius but is bringing people together to remember the meaning of why we’re here. To me it just goes deeper than singing together.

Absolutely mind blowing seminar, Jacob is only a beginning on what's to come, not weird at all but very very interesting and intelligent, he did what he wanted to do and how it makes him happy, no right or wrongs in life, be yourself, be different, Jacob your an Phenomenal guy..

There is no definition of real, locality and spacetime are relative only to the observer/observed. The light you see, the sounds you hear everything you experience even totally on your own are all technically from the past. The present is an ever constant probable reaction to the predictable past, they all matter the better you understand the past the more you are able to understand probabilities. Every moment matters which is what truly embodies living in the present to me at least, there is nothing wrong with spending those important moments in reflection just as there is nothing wrong spending them dreaming. As long as that is balanced properly and you don't get lost or focus on only one or the other you will find the harmony that lets you live in the moment as much as possible.

Thanks for posting. It's like mental and creative vitamins.

What a voice.......................and style........the best ever ..... the future looks very bright ........bless you Mr Collier!!!!!!!!

It's wonderful to see one of the most talented musicians of our time reminding a group of academics about the idea of forgetting the rule and making things that are beautiful and excellent. Music school fills far too many kid's heads with fanciful ideas of making "important and interesting" music that often nobody but a tiny group of insiders appreciate. There's nothing wrong with writing music that speaks to only your soul and a select group of insiders. But an artist is supposed to *say* something with their work. And far too many kids come out of music school these days not saying much more than "listen to this wierd augenmuzik that will make you feel like you wasted 15 minutes of your time listening to (and like I wasted four years of mine)". And teachers, stop justifying your fetish with teaching music nobody wants to hear but a tiny group of cultists because you made the error of thinking that making music that sounds terrible and defending it with obscure and esoteric words makes you deep or enlightened. Make approachable music that people want to hear and stop flogging the corpses of the post tonal composers.

Your comments made me laugh out loud😂..."flogging the corpses of post tonal composers", indeed! Certainly we are ALL fortunate to be on our planet at this time to remember the beauty of our individual selves that Jacob Collier has incited within us to unify with each other through simply listening to his music & being in the magic of his super multitalented soul! In my opinion he us definitely like a messiah... that just being in the presence of his unique vibrational frequencies helps create our own realizations of why we are actually here & on our beloved planet at this time...to walk the path of unabashed heartful unconditional love leading to peace. Seemingly without consciously knowing it, Jacob has joined the ranks of Peace Troubadore Good Will Ambassador. How fortunate we are. And thanks, Mama Collier, for being the one that brought him into the world & gave him encouragement & free rein to develope his unique natural talented nature! Aho, and so it is, amen👏🎶✌️💫💖

Thank you so much for this lesson, I need it

What he says about embrace the nonsense is nonlinear thinking. The new way of spherical thinking that the new human ( usually young in body and struggling with the old patterns of linearity) is beginning to use. Holistic and whole- istic. The wholeness from the deepest part of you. The soul part. Eternal part. This new thought is made ( spherical thinking) to be reverse engineered. You will see the end product ( even in engineering) before you see how you got there. This is how old " problems" will no longer exist. A simple solution will come because nonlinear thinking ( multideminsional thinking) will be used. The mathematics of this music and the harmony is True, Real. So Beautiful to see it coming into form. May we embrace it in all facets of our life. Life. Lived.. NOW.

Crimpe!!!! just so big and honest!!! Lyrics is gorgious.... for the UK ..

Mind blowing 👌😁🎶beautiful. Love it 💖. Especially the challenging fact in being wired and putting yourself out there, while crossing the education guidelines we are told in years.

Thank You!! So much good philosophy here.

My opinion: society and companionship must rest on a foundation of interpersonal agreement. Harmony is, at a fundamental level, agreement, support, understanding, complementing, developing understanding on a purely auditory level. We then weave in melody lines that we remember (bolstering agreement) and lyrics to give it poignant meaning, and it's no wonder that the music of a culture forms a massive part of that culture's legacy, but even broader than that, the music of a culture, with harmony being so basically agreed upon, becomes a bridge between cultures. In a sense, it's a language we can all speak and understand and in doing so, interact with harmony, literally and then we hope figuratively.

Just love this guy.

Exactly, how beautiful a statement can I make?

Edges. The perpetual search. How do you find the edge because the edge is where the goodness is. If you are in the middle of what you know, in the middle of your zone, then nothing is going to change. Nothing is going to move forward. On the other hand, if you are completely outside then you are lost because you don’t have the anchorage. Often the best ideas are found on the edge of your zone. How? You have to try. Something will happen What do you like? What’s important to you? You can practice. You can decide. Something will happen if it try. Take a step. See what happens. Dance with it. Quest. Like your life belongs to you.

24:24 Nonsense as a starting point is radical acceptance of yourself. Young children know how to play. They have no shame. They delight. Delight over their freedom to experience simple things like sunlight, a hop, a bouncy gate, a new detail seen. They know so little that they approach the moment with discovery infused by curiosity. We are allowed to do that too. Nonsense just unleashes us. But we are sensible. But we judge. We criticize and compare and evaluate. They call it playing music for a reason.

To be fair, many of those tracks are tiny parts of the actual instruments you could say. For example, as a producer, many times you may layer several bass tracks to create a unique sound as a combination of the former. And not all of these tracks are played at the same time. Many of them, as he said in the video are vocal layers. And some more are just tiny details and textures that are almost imperceptible. It shows how rich in detail jacob's music is tho that he polishes his craft to this meticulous level, and it also shows how insane his computer is 😂

@@lactomedam33 I produced trance music for nearly 15 years and spent time in the studio with some phenomenal engineers in that time and no song had as many individual tracks as this. Even when we layered kicks, synths for leads or basa, it would be nowhere near that amount. He must have well over 100 individual tracks listed. I suppose we did bounce everything to individual audio samples once layering complete and imported them back in, whereas it doesn't look like does that.

21:32 Our brains have many areas, streams, foci. The Language part overstates it’s centrality and primacy but it is merely one part and it is not very good at a number of things. (Shh don’t tell it - it will react and take over again.) I have a couple dogs. Without language, but with great pack-oriented drive, dogs are consistently more connected to the emotional state of their human than are other humans. They excel at things and act more quickly than we do since we constantly need to put things through the language networking in our brains and our process is therefore less immediate than theirs. We cry with pitch. We moan and delight and exclaim and more with pitch and timbre and variations in volume. We pay attention to those details in every conversation we listen to. Music is like that. But it gets behind our language part and addresses us and frees us to be. Is it spiritual? It might be. Or perhaps spiritual practices include more aspects of humanity than modern culture acknowledges.
