This has been my experience though, I wonder if you’ve felt in a similar way? Feeling ready for next week! I will be teaching at @fsg_hamburg again 🧡 #creativity #scrlgallery #thinkofthings #creativethinking

And well in this chapter of life’s magazine, I look like this. btw If you read the sentence “I’m in the land of the Gods” before she sings it, you are probably scrolling too fast. Shot on @lumix The portraits by @ttaaannnaaazz #shotonlumix

Gratitude, Fall, for being so superb and thank you @samie.sn for making this bro-adventure happen. Same time next year 🌲 How to bid farewell to the fantastic Fall of 24 we had. Nature isn’t waiting for my farewell anyway, yet I am so grateful I got to live it so wholeheartedly. I now know why I was born in September. By choosing to go out there & notice the place I am walking in, new dimensions open up. One place is never the same as it was & It’s never too late to learn to notice the wonders. It is as though noticing environments is a form of deeply respecting life. 🎥 Lumix S5iix 20-60mm

Build structures, break structures, build structures,… This understanding has come to me early on my handpan journey and has proven to be true time and again. And this way, playing handpan has opened up so many beautiful possibilities and after 10 years it’s still far from being boring. If you find something that you like, try to copy it and then make sure to make it your own. Always look for the sound that feels like you. For me, that’s the real beauty in creating music. Finding my own unique voice. Step by step, always a bit closer. Tell me about YOUR experience learning to play handpan! I’m curious! 👀 This video was made by my buddy @amindividual at my MasterClass at @ayasa_instruments #happy #musicislife #handpan #handpanworld #alexandermercks #ayasainstruments

Some precious catches of mine Life is crazy man @lumix s5ii x

I am beyond touched by the previous concerts and looking forward to a week full of more concerts in beautiful venues. Tomorrow: Hannover @kulturzentrumfaust Thursday: Luzern, CH @treibhaus Friday: Köln @lutherkirche_koeln_suedstadt This video was created by my talented friend @amindividual at my concert at @ayasa_instruments about two weeks ago. I am coming with a new set of sounds, new setup and I feel I am making a big step towards the music that really represents who I am. Thanks to the bottom from my heart for all the support I’ve gotten so far from so many of you! In gratitude, Alex #handpan #ayasa #neotone #fusion #meditation #calm #neoclassic

Laguna Beach, CA Take time to ride the audiovisual experiences. We have to re-learn to take in the long moments. To un-f our minds of the rapid rush of unwanted & addictive dopamine, into experiencing things in a space of vastness and understanding. Right there, in that state, we can see things far more clearly. And when the masks fall, you will see how worthy or unworthy many “contents” are. 🎥 with Lumix s5iix / 20-60mm #creating #shotonlumix @lumix #cinegram #cinematography #drama

Finding the atmosphere An Autumn might in Manhattan Upon digesting some inner and outer voices of “why are you not doing enough” or “you are falling behind and everyone is getting ‘ahead’ of you” or the feeling of anxiety of not being enough creatively, I can only admit my own creative essence and who I am. I don’t recognise this “hurry” as real. To me, it means honesty to spend time, marinating in the emotions of the happenings in life. To look back and feel the happenings again, create them again, freeze the moments inside my head and look at every detail I missed. This takes time. It is the ripening of the fruit. It is the dwelling to feel more and find out more. So no, I am not at all in a rush to do anything even if it feels like I am being hurried by everything (specifically in the creative areas and social media). The only time I believe one can rightfully feel fallen behind is when one doesn’t take action at times that words and thoughts have done their jobs and we need action to take things further. #cinematography #cinegrams #filmmaking #shotonlumix @lumix @lumixusa

Slow down, You don’t have long, Till you’re the river & the rain, A curling wave, You’ll be a melody young one, An open door, But for now you are the animal, Who dances for the dawn. Words out of the song ‘Old one’ by @finnegantui

Few days among the greens at the 📍Sächsischer Wald Accompanied by great talks & sights. With @samie.sn After the hikes, I sent another friend (@sam.ghanbari ) a message with the photo of my hand on the Rock along with the following text: “The rock formations in Saxony forest, where we were hiking, were millions of years old (for a fact) and I couldnt help but wonder and sort of “talk” to them through imagining and wanting to know what they were through. This is the exact moment I was pondering the vastness of what these rocks have been through.” To which was replied: “nature is so patient, when you look at how the change happens so slowly yet so profoundly, it’s beautiful what you captured. what Neil deGrasse Tyson said is very fitting “I look up at the night sky, and I know that, yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us. When I reflect on that fact, I look up—many people feel small, because they’re small and the Universe is big, but I feel big, because my atoms came from those stars.” In this particular picture your bracelet is very fitting it’s like it is a reminder to you that you are also of this world, you and these million years old rocks are made up of the same atoms.” The bracelet is a gift from my mom in my travels. Priceless conversation. #hiking #outdoorshoot #shotonlumix @lumix
