Melody of the Mind
Hi my name is Jonah Noel, and this is my life as a street performer. Day after day I wake up to the smell of cold wet concrete while streaks of light hit my crusty sunburnt face. Everyday I put on my humble show for anyone willing to listen. Sometimes I seem invisible to the people passing by, but there is that rare moment when my heart connects with theirs. Music is my passion and second language always taking me on unmapped journeys through my life and the lives of others.

cool video but do you really live on the street? how were you able to shoot and edit this cool video?

…..Would have been better if you had used a real street performer…..because you are obviously not one.

Jonah’s perspective is his reality, yet it doesn’t stop here. His perspective impacts the reality of others. Well done!! Keep creating!!
