Touch - Stillness And Listening
(David speaking) - I like the name of the video and, in the video, we talk about listening. In these comments, I want to talk about stillness as a means to listening. That the fewer things you're doing, the more the mind is free to listen. The more still you are, the more you create an environment in which listening can happen.
So I would like you to think of it as a two stage process. First you create the environment in which stillness can happen and then you listen.

From a review on the website: Olsen, an itinerant troubadour who regularly graces Australian folk festivals, was at her most engaging. Such was the candour of her songs and chatty tales that it would impossible for anyone with blood in their veins not to empathise with her. Her full-throated voice and crisp guitar served up such diverse subject matter as crop-dusting and prostitution, while a revealing yarn about life-drawing classes introduced The Truth of a Woman. From her new CD came In Your Darkened Room, the title track to an album containing some of her finest work, a black frost edging her usual warmth and humour.
