Bio
Where do I start? The day Bowie killed off Ziggy Stardust was the day DeafboyOne came to being... Its my "Deaf Sign Name" given to me by friends and colleagues at the R.N.I.D. UK. I've decided to use it to promote Deaf culture and its beautiful language. The Skull n Phones illustrates bone conduction. But yes I do like Heavy Metal Music, Punk Music, Rock Music, Classical Music... in fact most Music under the sun. and I'm just upset that the Music Industry has polluted and corrupted the one passion I have... Music...
Music should be free... Who owns the airwaves? Nobody...
About
They call me DeafboyOne its my "Deaf Sign Name" If you understood Deaf Culture you'd know what that means.
I Communicate through Music and Sign Language... Aussie, Brit, American... I'm going Deaf.
I used to jam with The Bundy Boys every weekend at Zen Studio Unwins Bridge Road St Peters Sydney...
you can hear some of the stuff captured online... checkout http://www.myspace.com/thebundyboys3
Communication...
I remember my German girlfriend telling me she learned English by watching Bowie videos... now that struck me as a simple but effective way for communication...
So the hearing world could learn Deaf Sign Language through Music...!
Fantastic! Just watch a Sign Language interpreter Signing to Pop Music
You'll be amazed how much you'll pick up...
Start a revolution from your skull children... (Children of the Revolution)
Use your vision. Now go break the sound barrier...
The ever circling skeletal family...
See things you would not normally see...
Hear things you would not normally hear...
and do things you would not normally do...
DeafboyOne - Searching for ears... similar skulls and enlightenment
The plan is to record everything I ever performed, wrote or recorded before I go profoundly Deaf. I need your help.
I want to go out on the road with this but it will take a lot of planning. The show will include Interpreters/subtitles/caption feeds/vibration panels/sound to light system the works. I havent even got a band yet. So I need your help.
I'm in Sydney til November 2011 (visa runs out). Contact me on deafboyone@hotmail.com if you want to get involved.
The only qualification you need to get involved is Enthusiasm. No discrimmination here mate.
Deaf culture is a term applied to the social movement that holds deafness to be a difference in human experience rather than a disability. When used in a cultural sense, the word deaf is referred to as Deaf with a capital D.
Deaf communities do not automatically include all those who are clinically or legally deaf, nor do they exclude all hearing people. It is not the extent of hearing loss that defines a member of the Deaf community but the individual's own sense of identity and resultant actions. As with all social groups a person may choose to belong to a particular community if they identify themselves as a member of that community, and other members accept them as a part of that community.
The Deaf community typically includes individuals who communicate via signed languages, individuals who attended schools for the deaf, children of deaf parents, and sign language interpreters. Deaf communities also often possess social and cultural norms that are distinct from those of surrounding hearing communities.
"One day all Deaf and Hard of Hearing people will have the same access to and enjoyment of Music as Hearing people enjoy today..."
DeafboyOne = Deaf name
Pete = Hearing name
