Evelyn Glennie


What is something that struck you about the video of Evelyn Glennie?
This struck me because she was so good at teaching us how to listen and play instruments. That it was so hard to believe that she couldn't hear at all. It was amazing to me that she could teach some one how to listen without being able to listen herself.
What did you notice?
I noticed how smooth her hands moved when she played the Marimba and how cool and mellow it sound and made me feel.
What did you enjoy about her performance?
Something I enjoyed about her performance was when she played the Marimba on the top row because it made me think of the movie Mulan.
What is something you will remember about the performance?
Something i will remember about the performance was how she tought how to play the drum only because my little brother loves the drums and i have to listen to them all day and night so that's something that really stood out

Hello what is your name and role here at the Farmers Market?
Hi my name is Brian and i supply fish here at the point Loma farmers market.

Why did u choose to sell your fish here in Point Loma?
To bring this product here to people who wouldn't usually have it.

When did u first start selling here?
3 weeks ago but the company has been going on for two years.

Do you have your own garden at home?
Yes yes I do.
Why?
Because fresh is better and no chemicals.

Something that really struck me about the Point Loma farmers market was that they sold more then just food. I have never been to a farmers market and I thought it was just locally grown thing from locally farmer bt they had nice cute Little sun dresses,big beautiful hats,and Tupperware ext.There was allot of things to choose from even food from different countries it was amazing I had a sample of almost everything there:-). My mother bought me food from Africa and bought herself a big pear that looked really good and juicy. Something I thought that was very expensive was the eggs 12 eggs for 8 bucks when u can go to the store and get 24 for the same price.I differently would love to come to farmers markets more often ,and I'm happy we had this project to open my eyes a Little bit about the things I eat and be more aware that I have more options open to me.
