i am usually a physical book person but i recently started listening to marina abramovic's memoir via audiobook and her voice narrating it is soooo fucking good
(i did a free trial on https://www.audiobooks.com/ )
especially poetry!!! hearing ada limón read “instructions on not giving up” actually saved my life a little. current listen is “checkout 19” by claire-louise bennett
see: werner herzog's every man for himself and all against god // david lynch's catching the big fish
i like to imagine that both herzog and lynch are my grandfathers while i listen
note that both of these are available on sp*tify with a premium subscription
i thought it would be unbearably cringe but it’s actually so cool and engaging! if you’re like me and covid rotted your attention span, it’s so helpful and really keeps you engaged in the story.
i think it was david lynch who said he's only lost 2 good ideas in his life and it's because he didn't write them down
i have lots of ideas and forget everything so having a disatrous notes app / notebook with me is a must
tbd on whether i do anything with them
the completeness of a start to finish in one sitting
The skill of conveying something in a limited time frame
the care and work put into eternalizing one story
Movies rock I love them
