Setting Music in Motion
If someone told you of a video about a machine that uses marbles, how many views would you guess it might get over a period of seven years?
In this case, it’s almost a quarter billion. That’s “billion” with a “b”.
How many different reasons can you come up with that make this video something that lots of people would like? For each reason, what might we learn about ourselves as a result?
Understanding the power of what catches our attention and why that might be important is not just a social media issue; it’s also how we think about helping others understand what we think.
Perhaps there are creative ways you can help others understand the things that you think are important, even when it’s part of something, like marbles, that may be unrelated.
