Sound recording of me reciting the Surah Al-Fatiha, in Arabic. It is the first chapter in the Quran, the holy book of Islam. The literal meaning of Al-Fatiha is "The Opener", because it is the first Surah recited in full during every prayer circle (rak'ah). Recorded on an H4n Zoom Recorder.

This audio was captured while walking on broad st in Richmond, VA after a hot yoga class. It attempts to capture a moment of frivolity; when life is so good and light and you are so relaxed you can sing. In life, when we cannot capture an emotion with words we can sing. By performing a number of behaviors throughout the day I was able to get myself into an appropriate mental and physical state to perform this "feeling".
