https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Bill, may I call you Bill? I am an instructional designer (teacher of teachers) at a Technology School in Oklahoma I think your video style would be VERY engaging for students. Have you ever given any thought to teaching teachers (or teaching teachers of teachers) how you create videos for instruction? If teachers presented information in the same style as your "History of Japan" video, students would watch it multiple times. And/Or, would you consider doing a video chat with some students in a digital media classroom? | sure. i will teach anyone things if they think i know them. |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | How do you feel about people constantly asking you about the Japan video? | i think it is good training in case i ever do something that is even more popular |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | You know that HOJ getting a basquillion views doesn't mean you have to make more Histories if you don't want to, right? | i'm actually just going to make a sequel to that one. history of japan, part 2 |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | How did you know that much about Japanese history? Did you take history as your major in university? I am asking this because I am just impressed with your recent video!! | i knew absolutely nothing about japanese history before i made the video. that is why i picked it as a first topic. it was a test run to see if i could learn a thing really fast and then spit it back out. i will be doing this with many more topics in the future |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Hello Bill! I am often disassociating and very frustrated/sad/angry/synonyms for not okay. Your videos and music make me feel better and more like a person because they are something that I can relate too yet also find joy out of. When you first started uploading music, was your intention to connect to people in this way or in any other way regarding emotions and things like that, or was it more for a purely self-indulgent hobby that you didn't expect an audience to gravitate to? Either way, I'm very glad that you're so dedicated to what you produce and thankful that you exist in the online community. | as soon as i realized everything was actually ok, it became very important for me to tell everybody about it. because i figured a lot of people probably don't know. |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Bill, do you like preforming and/or writing with other musicians? How do you approach collaboration when/if you ever have to? | playing together is great. writing together is impossible. that's my fault, it's me that's impossible. i apologize |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | I used to be a time traveler, but I was a pretty shitty one since I could only go forward. Any recommendations for new careers that need skills like mine? | how did you get it to stop |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Is musical talent innate or is it a skill anyone can learn if they're passionate and put in the work? Do you think some people just don't have an ear for music and are meant to find something else that resonates with them? | if you want to have it that means you have it. if you don't want it then that's because you don't have it |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Hi Bill. When you make music, do you compose the lead singing first (without any chords), or do you search for a chord progression first? Or something else? May you explain your composition method by text or video some day? Thank you! | always both together. everything revolves around the lead and the lyric, but the chords are Always there immediately with it. then u can hack it out and change the details, but overall it all happens at once. i will do extensive behind the scenes for both writing and production. |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | which would you rather accept a war request from: Zimbabwe or Uruguay? | i do not accept war requests |
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | How do I grow up to be like you? | start by wanting to grow up being like someone else. then gradually assimilate those qualities into yourself over time. that's what i did |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | Hello, it's the internet police. You have 5 'body' tags, and all of those s should be s, and your anchors are whack.

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | I know you want to do all your creative work by yourself. That's understandable. But do you realize that means only about 5 (long) videos per year at this rate? What about focusing on the creative part but using some technical help/technical assistance from another person(s)? Many people would love to help you with time-consuming technical stuff so you could concentrate on the pure creative decisions and in the end do more videos (both music and research) until you die. Just let somebody help you so you could achieve more. It would still be your creative work. Please consider this. | i think that will eventually be the way it works. it takes a lot of time to build that kind of trust in someone. right now the only contact i have with the outside world is people sending me emails like "hi here's a picture of my cat" etc. i also don't make enough to pay people properly for the kind of work i need them to do. in time i think it will come together |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | You haven't posted any notes on your notebook page in sometime. Why is that? | it takes a while to search through the hard drive, the phone, and twitter and get all the dates right and decide what i'm going to include. i usually do a big notes update right after i finish a long project. but in the last few years, about 80% of the notes are actually just tweets, so if you follow my twitter you would have already seen them |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | I know classical and jazz music theory and I can identify chords in songs, but I still have trouble picking out the voicings. I also find it difficult to voice and voice lead my own songs, especially when voicing multiple instruments together such as piano, rhodes, organ, guitar, vocals, etc. How do I get better with voicings? | i never really figured out what people mean when they say 'voice leading.' i honestly think terms like that are empty and not useful. i find a lot of terms useful, but not that one. just do what sounds good man. as far as getting all those instruments you mentioned to work together, i will say: don't have too many things going on at the same time. and other than that, the only way to learn is experience. always start with less instruments, it gets out of hand fast. |

https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2016-05.html | How did you go about learning from songs? Did you play by ear and imitate?
