what are you listening to? {part 2}

i'm often fascinated by how one art form can influence, intersect with another. today we're talking sound. i'm asking folks (on the etsy forums & in previous posts) to tell us what they listen to... in various circumstances... here's the 2nd installment....

what are you listening to... while you make your art / craft? (part two!) here's a sampling:

parallelbotany: I often don't listen to anything when I'm working. For me, listening to music is usually its own exclusive activity.


zigzagstitches wrote: I listen to CBC Radio One while I am sewing. If it's a program that doesn't interest me, I put on a CD from my rather eclectic collection.


haveitconfections wrote: I usually will put on my favorite TV shows and then minimize them. It's like listening to a radio show. I love it.



museglass said: stax recordings, daniel lanois, stones, lucinda, portishead
and on and on...or nothing.


everything ok wrote: usually i have a star trek dvd in the background, but sometimes (like this evening) i'll put on a mix cd to make sure it flows before gifting it to someone.

When I have a moment to choose, I look for 80's movies, girly make me cry romance movies, or the Golden Girls...those kinds of things. I'll be watching a Ben & Jerry documentary this weekend for inspiration!
