I started singing gospel in church. I ended singing everything. I'll help you find your voice -- not my voice, YOUR voice. We work on breath control, vibrato, and the thing nobody teaches: vulnerability. If you're not scared when you sing, you're not singing hard enough.

The same guitar model I played at the Cotton Club in 1938. Before Chuck. Before Elvis. Before Hendrix. This is where rock and roll started -- a Black woman with a Gibson and a gospel shout.

The book I co-wrote with Brian Kernighan. 272 pages. Every C programmer alive has read it. Clear, concise, no padding. The entire language specification fits in your back pocket. Borrow it, read it, write hello world, return it.

I don't teach technique. I teach seeing. We go outside, we look at the sky, and I show you that it's not blue -- it's cobalt and ultramarine and violet and green, swirling. The color is the feeling. The brushstroke is the heartbeat. If your painting looks like a photograph, you're not painting -- you're copying.

Four hearing devices from different periods of my deafness, faithfully reproduced. From the early brass cone to the elaborate conversation devices Johann Maelzel built for me. A sobering reminder that the most famous music in history was composed in silence.

Replica of my Walter fortepiano -- the instrument I actually played, not a modern Steinway. Lighter action, clearer tone, closer to what I heard when I composed. Perfect for performing Mozart, Haydn, early Beethoven the way it was meant to sound.

Aluminum scaffolding tower, adjustable height up to 6 meters. Platform, guard rails, locking casters. I spent 4 years on scaffolding painting the Sistine Chapel. You probably need it for a weekend to paint your ceiling. Trust me, a ladder is not enough.

We read poetry. We sit in silence. We spin. This is not a class -- it's a practice. Bring nothing but yourself. Leave your opinions at the door. The heart knows things the mind will never understand.

Hands-on physics lessons using real machines. We'll build levers, compound pulleys, and test buoyancy in water. You'll understand why ships float, how cranes work, and how I held off the Roman navy with math and mirrors.
