My name is David Jacobs, and I am a senior radio/television/film major at
Northwestern University.  Professor Irene Davis suggested I subscribe,
because of where my interests lie, Africa.  I see a land very rich in
music, culture, as well as the natural life processes.  In looking at the
direction I want my life to go, I realize that the most important thing I
can do is to keep learning.  Through my experiences I can help teach others
about this fascinating world we live in.  I hear in Africa the roots of a
lot of music.  It holds a sound that speaks from the heart, sounds that are
honest, and true to life.  Outside of the urban centers of Africa is a land
where humans and nature have to co-exist, living off of one another, as the
elements continually give and take.  I want to be a part of documenting
anyone or anything in Africa through film.  If anyone knows of any
production companies or individuals who are involved in this work, I would
love to get in contact with them.  Thank you.
