Specifically, typically the trash is separated by residents into burnable, nonburnable, PET bottles, aluminum, other metal, glass, and cardboard/heavy paper products. All go to specialized facilities. The burnable trash (including non-PET plastics) is incinerated in recirculating incinerators and used as fuel for power generation. The cardboard is recycled into other paper products. The metals and glass are melted down and used as raw materials for new manufacturing.
The ash output from the incinerators and the processed (ground up, etc) nonburnable trash is then landfilled, but they try and keep this productive too and do things like make new islands, including part of the one that Olympic Village was on in 2020.
I always play with a headphone amp, and I donāt usually warm up before starting. It isnāt something that I think about. Warming up would be good of course if the hands were cold or tense. I think many people like to warm up before playing, and Josh made some videos with warming up exercises. Actually they were meant as a daily exercise routine, but can be used for warming up.
But if my intention were to play to someone using my amp, then I would probably first practice it using a headphone so I would be the only one listening. Mostly because I would be afraid of messing up.
Iām a beginner and havenāt played with other people, except with a bass teacher. But I see I donāt perform at my best if someone is looking and listening. Iām probably the worst kind of musician if I canāt play with someone watching! Iāve tried filming myself, and I make the most mistakes because of that. So for me it would be necessary to rehearse a few times before playing for someone.
The easiest way to get past recording and filming yourself is to do it more. Even if you donāt post it. I only have limited experience playing with someone, only been doing it a couple of months and havent been in front of a crowd, Iāve found that to be a whole lot easier than recording and posting a cover video.
This makes a lot of sense. I must buy a cheap phone tripod and start recording myself. With time I could be able to forget/ignore the camera or feel comfortable with it.
(About recording myself, once I had to record a 2 minute video for a job application talking about myself. I spent some 45 minutes trying. I thought later maybe even if everything sucked a little, I could edit the best pieces and make a 2 minute video. Upon watching all of them, I realized there were no usable pieces at all. )
Recording myself is still daunting, even though I do record myself quite a lot. Although most of the time I do not record my face unless itās a bass cover. I find looking back I can see where I went wrong, but more importantly how far I have come. I donāt know why Iām sharing my journey, but Iām enjoying the process and it takes me out of my comfort zone. I will probably never play on a stage with a band due to being in a wheelchair, another problem, so this is the next best thing for me.
