Of course, there would be no me without that special sperm to meet up with that special egg McMuffin. The other half of me is my dad – Dr. F.D. Day. Also possessing an amazing voice, he is the left brain to my mother’s right. In the Myers Briggs Personality Test, my father is an ISTJ – exactly opposite of my mother’s ENFP. They divorced in 1978. I have to say I saw it coming from a mile away. They are SO different. But at one time, they were very much in love. They met, got married, and had me. And I am grateful for both of their perspectives, as that right brain left brain split wove itself together and made me who I am – an INFJ!
One of the projects I’m working on is called BRAIN CHEMISTRY FOR LOVERS. I am more excited about this show than almost anything I’ve ever done (except for the NU SHOOZ Orchestra project that I’m working on concurrently – but more about that later). There is a lot of stuff to tell, but I think that without the influence of my parents – my father’s more clinical mind and my mother’s more artistic temperament, neither I or this project would have been born.
For a really great explanation of right brain/left brain functioning, check out this TED Lecture given by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor….
