The job of a piano tuner and technician involves much detail, precision and repetition.
This practice of 'micro focus' or living a 'high res life' creates an environment of excellence that bleeds into other areas of life like food, cooking, researching--even making the 'perfect cappuccino'.
In today's episode, Part 2 of 2 we explore the topics:
-Why Marc calls himself 'a liar' and how piano tuning comes down to concealing a bunch of little lies.
-Creating your personal 'sound archetype' for your sonic environment.
-The difference between 'noise' and 'signal' and how this affects you from inside-out.
-How to bring a 'high-res' approach to everyday tasks for increased joy and discovery.
It's not everyday that a novel is written about a piano tuner. And yet, a book about a piano obsession turned into a NYT bestseller and it features our guest, Marc Wienert.
The reason is that piano tuning is much more than the sum of its parts. Marc Wienert brings a holistic mind, spirit and aesthetic approach to his craft. His musings about the world of piano and beyond will open up portals of discovery.
I hope you enjoy this conclusion of a conversation with a fascinating man as we close Season One of the podcast.
Season Two coming soon!
