What doesn’t Kill me makes me Stronger
by Brian David Phillips •
Friedrich Nietzsche seems to be just about every other musician’s favorite philosopher. His famous line, “What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger,” shows up in rap, R&B, rock, pop, and loads of heavy metal. Although Justin Bieber is pushing the envelope with his new single, “God Is Dead! God Remains Dead. And We Have Killed…

Gibberish Fun in English or not English or Something Odd in Between or inbetween or not whatever
by Brian David Phillips •
Gibberish or nonsense is a fascinating exploration in how random sounds can seem to be actual language.

See http://www.jabberwocky.com/carroll/jabber/jabberwocky.html for the poem. A recent short…

These are effects I typically teach new students…
