Evil

On a daily basis we encounter spiteful and malicious acts, witness unbearable moments of tragedy, experience pain, suffering and loss. In struggling to make sense of the things we do, the things which happen to us and the things we see around us, we use the word ‘evil’ as a way of talking about particularly intense, brutal or shocking examples of human behaviour. We continually strive to understand what, if anything, we can say and do about these things.

Music Measures Memories -
The Diaries of a Melomaniac

Jamie Robertson

Measuring my life with music has helped me recall experiences both good and bad but more importantly, it has enabled a healing process that I hadn’t realised I needed until I began writing my story.
