Jason is a young man with autism that I have worked privately with for over 16 years. Every few years, I'll bring a recorder to our sessions and record his vocalizations, then put them to music.  This piece is based on a 7-note sequence that I came across while going through the recordings, and I was particularly impressed with the musicality of Jason's note sequence.

In one of the recorded sessions, I put the headphones on Jason so he could hear the recordings we had done that day. I had forgotten that there was an Indian-style rhythm on another track, so while he was hearing his voice, he was hearing it along with the Indian beat. He seemed to enjoy this quite a bit, which is why I created the piece of music in the video with an Indian-style groove underneath. Enjoy!
