As a professional musician I've worked with a lot of international artists
such as Liberace and Shirley Bassey and Jerry Lewis
I would watch those performers
and they would do that same show every night
and they might do it for years, but that one night, to them,
they would focus and it would be
completely about that audience for that night.
They would create a magical situation between them and the audience
and that audience would think wow, this is just done for us
and think to themselves that they really did make a connection
with that particular artist that night
and that's what I do when I teach.
When I walk into that lecture theatre, I want to engage with that audience.
I want to take them on a journey
a journey of discovery, of knowledge
and I want to engage with that audience and those students
so that we work together and that they leave having learnt something.
To me, it's all about creating an experience
in that particular moment in time with the students
and that's what I do in my lectures, yeah.
