2) Did people express a sense of community to you after playing the Drum Casket?

Yes, I would say. Laughing, synching up with percussion, making sure each other were ok and comfortable getting in and out. And the ownership of Drum Casket becomes everyone there. Yeah, you asked about watching- I have stepped back from it before and had someone else at the event explain to me what Drum Casket was and that I should try it. We talk about the fear of getting in, or the experience of drumming or playing, and feeling the sound, feeling like it wakes you up. These are common things that people share but don’t usually talk about.  I think these things are a great way to be in a moment. And longer conversations I have with people afterword are more in depth, about religion, and spirituality, dealing with our morality, making music as something professional or something for all people. In that way, I think these experiences and conversations are sense of community.
