His seminal book led to his work as the artistic director of the Effortless Mastery Institute at the Berklee College of Music, a leading observatory for training the world's greatest musicians.Now Werner has written the perfect companion-Becoming the Instrument-where he shares profound insights and uplifting anecdotes based on his 40 years of experience to teach musicians, artists, athletes or even business people how to lift their performance to its highest level and showing us how to be spontaneous, fearless, joyful and disciplined in our work and in our life.

Download or read book The Right Instrument For Your Child written by Atarah Ben-Tovim and published by Orion. This book was released on 2012-04-12 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A fascinating analysis of both children and instruments' GUARDIAN This unique book offers a simple and practical method of selecting the right instrument for the individual child. Starting with the physical and emotional make-up of the child and using questionnaires and charts, the authors systematically explain the pros and cons of various instruments. For instance, a child who loves company might not enjoy playing the piano as it is predominantly a solo instrument. It appeals more to quiet introverts and yet many a child has been forced to learn only to give up as soon as they are allowed. As well as examining each individual instrument, the authors give advice on how some of the pitfalls can be avoided and provide information on buying and practising. Based on years of research by the authors, whose experience is unsurpassed, this is a comprehensive and inspirational book that will help unlock every child's potential.

Download or read book The Effects of Pure Red and Low color temperature White Instrument Lighting Upon Dark adapted Visual Thresholds written by Kenneth T. Brown and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The effects of pure red and low color temperature white flood lighting upon completely dark adapted visual thresholds have been determined. The red light was adjusted to brightness levels which pilots have been found to use as the minimal, normal, and maximal levels for night flying. For each brightness level of the red light, a brightness was found for the low color temperature white light at which aircraft instruments were equally legible under the two lighting systems. Both a simulated instrument panel and a pure white panel were used as viewing panels. Six subjects were tested under each lighting condition. A higher brightness proved necessary with the low color temperature white light than with the pure red light in order to attain equal legibility of instruments. Both lighting systems at all brightness levels caused small increases in visual thresholds above the completely dark adapted state. When the simulated instrument panel was illuminated at the normal brightness level, thresholds after viewing low color temperature white light were 0.15 log micro-microlamberts above thresholds after viewing pure red light. This value defines the approximate sacrifice in dark adaptation which would be made if white lights, operated at low voltage, were substituted for red lights in flood lighting aircraft instruments. The white lighting would also be more visible to dark adapted enemy observers. However, the white lighting system would make colors in the cockpit appear more natural, which would facilitate such tasks as map reading. When operated at normal voltage, the white lighting system could also provide high intensity illumination for special purposes such as thunderstorm flying, very high altitude daytime flight, and simulated instrument flying with the amber hood and blue goggles."--Abstract.
