Regarding the drummer set against the amber; it signifies communication of my thoughts and ideas to others. As you know, drums were used as a communication media. I had always been fascinated by the drum and the drummers after I read the book Talking drums of Africa (I don’t remember the author) long time back. Just like one has to practice hard to becoming a good communicator, the drummer has to practice for years to become a master drummer. The concepts behind the drum, drummers, novice drummers, master drummers, etc, influenced me in choosing the picture for the blog.
