Sleep

Recently I've been addicted to talks on TED, and while stumbling along from one inspiring/funny/informative/a-host-of-other-positive-adjectives talk to another, I ran into Eric Whitacre. His idea of a virtual choir was simply so ingenious and it made me ponder two things:


1) The power of music to change- from our momentary fickle moods to world-wide unity.

2) The power of modern technology which made such a thing possible.

I eagerly awaited the release of Whitacre's Virtual Choir 2.0 after being astounded by his first one. Not only is the music so pure and beautiful, it fits the mood portrayed by the lyrics like a glove.

I'm in love with choir.

As I surrender unto sleep
As I surrender unto sleep...

... Sleep...
