Something out of Nothing - Inspiration!

Came across Abu the Flutemaker in Baltimore truly making something out of nothing and was super inspired. He's playing a homemade saxophone/bass clarinet made from PVC pipes. Genius. Definitely maximizing the minimal and bringing joy into the world through music. This made me reflect on how much we take for granted, how much we waste.

I mean, sometimes the instrument which you are using is really crap, but in the end I do agree overally with that. E.g. there is a cook, he/she can be very good but if the ingredients are total crap, the cook will try to make the best out of it but it will still be kinda crap.

I don't see your response now, but it's not a question of not being able to afford a sax. There's several other videos of this guy with other homemade instruments. I think it's neat and fun, and I'm glad to see someone enjoying their hobby. But all these comments with superlative praise seem absurdly condescending, and I'm sure if it was a white guy people would say neat and that's about it.

This is so sad, we got people in the music industry that can’t even play instruments and there making millions for being artless and talentless, but than people with real talent like this guy live on the streets for people to walk past, just sad

[@sora2534]

It's like that for most fields of expertise, statistics say theres a 95% chance that Einstein wasn't the smartest person alive but rather the smartest person alive was poor and never had schooling because they couldnt afford it, look at the presidential debate for example, at this point you could pull someone off the street and have a higher chance of finding a better president, the only reason the people running are at where they are now is power, and power is equal to money because you cant have one without the other, the people running all owned businesses prior to running, they can afford the position of being a running mate because they already have money to create ads and posters and people already know them, so basically what I'm saying is that I would bet 10,000 that this man would be famous if born with money being thrown at him, he would be a famous Jazz musician by now
