The reason Jazz performances come off as so tight is because we play a set of songs called standards for years. So even though we improvise, we practice that same bag of tunes every week for years and years. So, yes improvisation is going on spontaneously, but the same tunes have been practiced, refined, and refined some more over the course of many years. Nobody plays a new tune well the first time. I have about 80 songs in my bag that I practice every week. You get deeper and deeper into the tune so your improvisation starts to sound better and more aligned with the tune and chord progression. Also you develop little things like, this is what I normally play over this part. So, it's not composed but you develop a bag of tricks sort of for each tune as a matter of habit. Some people call these licks, but they're not memorized, they develop over time when you practice.

Says who?

I can know awareness.

I appreciate Leo's video, but I'm asking you.

Can you explain how this works?

What does it mean that your consciousness increases?

I think some people think they are selflessness that is benefitting the whole actually.

Once you realize your whole life is an artwork, this puts things in a much larger perspective. Pleasing others and making money is just a small piece of your artistry.

Do you feel like you might be inclined to deny people face? I'm just getting this from what you said.

Okaay?

I can by meeting them in person.

Come on. This is ridiculous.

You're crazy lol.

People get drunk on their own ego without any alcohol needed.

It's not AI, it's people acting. Ditto for Karen videos.

But in this case do you even need faith? Faith seems to be a trust in a belief. If it's inside and you trust it, it seems to not be faith but just a belief-less knowing.

Interesting. I always thought this was an US old west version of root beer, but it looks like it has a different history.

I don't have a problem with this. If you do, then let me know if I can help you.

You have to realize on some level you have a finite bias too. Full stop. If you want to argue the contrary, I think you or anyone will lose long term.

But this takes wisdom to achieve. And discernment.

I'm not saying I disagree with you. Whatever works for you, have at it.

I think a lot of what is happening online is fake. Nobody knows who these people are. You never met any of these people in real life.

So what makes it narcissistic?

What I mean is you're focused outward. I'm not concerned with what Leo is doing.

This is all abstract shit.
