I love this lesson plan and would like to use it next week with some different classes. Unfortunately I keep getting an error message with the link to Tarun Nayar's Organismic Music. He has a ton of videos on his YouTube site and even after some googling and searching, I can't find the one you reference in this lesson plan. Any chance you could provide the title of it from his YouTube site or some more info so I can find it? Thanks so much!!!
Very cool topic, something really different.
