[Aside -- it can also be used to play Angry Birds with on the Underground, but that wasn't me -- that was the guy sitting next to me. Honest!] We started off the morning walking to the house where not just one but two musical innovators lived, although not at the same time. George Frideric Handel moved here to London with a whole lot of other people when the Elector of Hanover became King George I, and rented the top floors of this house… Couldn’t resist getting a shot of an actual door handle that Handel might have used. I get carried away. I also got a picture of his bedroom, though the upholstery isn’t quite the original.

A survey for the Fifth Grade Yearbook came home in his backpack with a list of questions and a request for a kindergarten photo. I’ve been looking through old computer files for a photo of 5 or 6 year old Charlie (who did not go to kindergarten; he was in an “elementary autistic” classroom). Yesterday, I read out the questions to Charlie—–favorite subject? favorite food? favorite singer? favorite band? favorite sport? favorite book? favorite thing to do?—-and he echoed back answers. So, keeping in mind Sunday’s discussion about yes and no, I offered choices and asked the questions a few times: Do you like the Ramones or Jimi Hendrix? Jimi Hendr...

It all started with Hendrix BBC Sessions and the Catfish Blues. Not that I would expect you to spend $.99 for the song (hey, it's the holidays!), but it's an old song, deep and rich. Certainly others have covered this (even Hendrix!), but this version is live... It's like my bones resonate.Amps & effects are set to sound like Cream (NO! Not cream, but Cream, baby!). Are we on the same page? OK! Now, understand that, at the time, Clapton played a Gibson and not a Stratocaster, so if you're like me and love that "boosted mid-range" and tube-warmth "fuzz" (and just if, perhaps, you're wondering what would make me happy for the holidays: Cli...

Today’s Developing Intelligence reports on a newly published study about stochastic resonance and ADHD by Göran B. W. Söderlund. My son Charlie does not have a diagnosis of ADHD in addition to autism; my husband Jim does have ADHD and he and I have noted some similarities in sensory and cognitive processing and attention. 42 children (21 with ADHD) between 9 and 12 years of age were tested in Söderlund’s study: Interpreted loosely, the idea is that those with ADHD are chronically understimulated by both their environment and their internal cognitive representations, leading them to search almost incessantly for more stimulating things (en...

I had already left to teach an early class and Jim gave me the report: It had been confusing. Charlie has grown accustomed to standing in the long driveway in front of my in-laws’ house and running back and forth on the lawn while waiting for the bus; today, Jim tried to determine if they should wait in the tidy parking lot or on the main street (the former, the bus driver assured him). Thursday had had a larger than usual share of anxious moments: Charlie had the day off for school for Rosh Hashanah and my parents left today for California and Charlie was keenly aware of this. I wrote up everything that happened for Charlie’s teacher soon as he went to sleep on Thursday. As I stood waiting for the bus at 3pm, C...

It is a questions that, I suspect, more parents of autistic persons who are children think about constantly; yesterday’s report about the 50 year old autistic woman who was beaten by workers in a group home is yet another news story that brings home so many fears and worries and that, perhaps, is somewhat behind some wishes for a “cure” for autism: How will a child like my son Charlie be able to have a good life—indeed, to survive—when he is older? when my husband J...

Arjun Muralidharan at The Good Musician provides two valuable tips about How to listen to a song: 1. Press the button 2. Listen I usually listen to music while doing “something else”—-while driving, running, writing. Arjun writes: Listening to music isn’t as easy as you might think. We listen to music while cleaning the house, driving a car, or sitting in the bus (for our more environmentally friendly readers). We often forget that you can just sit down and listen, putting all your concentration and resources to the music. I do know someone who &...
