Rhythm of the night

Last night was cool. The drummers and dancers from here and africa certainly beat out the right rhythms. There's something very powerful in rhytms/cycles. I miss hearing the african drums at night.

Life is rhythm
At the heart of every life form there is rhythm. Movement, flow, change, renewal and repe-tition are all based in rhythm. It is only in rhythm, that we can experience time. Without vibration, without oscillation, there is statis. There is nothing. Stability and solidity are illusions. Everything oscillates and vibrates – from the bridge of steel and concrete, to the energy shells around an atom. Even colors oscillate at different frequencies. We recognize and experience our world through rhythm. Everything vibrates – everything „speaks“. It is, in essence, a universe of sound.
