such a good documentary!!! i would've become obsesseddddd with this when i was in film school. as a music agent i'm always talking about the importance of knowing your copyright and *personality* rights as an artist, and this does a great job of highlighting that.

I am someone who is very concerned with the flow of information, the use of information, and the preservation of information, including archives. I first heard about Marion Stokes when the Internet Archive began digitising all of her tapes that she had recorded 24/7 for 35 years, and I remembered her again when someone recommended the Internet Archive's now available section of the aforementioned digitised work. I heard about this documentary on her but I only just found one that was accessible to me and I thought I'd share it. I would say more but I literally finished watching it 10 minutes ago so I am still sitting with it and thinking thoughts, as one does. My initial thoughts are that it does a pretty good job of emphasising the significance of information as access, a means for knowledge and defining how people interact with the world, my other thought is that given how this documentary focuses on Marion Stokes the person (as it should imo) I'd love to see the director do another documentary, this time with an in depth focus on the process of digitising the tapes that Marion had. But yeah it is worth the watch.

The new documentary 😉 directed by Alex Ross Perry about the world’s most important and influential band Pavement. Rock-doc, mock-doc, bio-pic, call it what you will… the film pushes the form forward and is an all-around treat! 👨🍳

i'm moving cities and into a new apartment in a few weeks. the apartment walls and layout are kinda funky so i recreated the apt on the sims to try and make some sense of it. i did it before in 2019 but to remember that apartment forever. i can say it's been super useful in both cases. i also have this dream of owning a small cinema and i've been working on it (in the game lol) recently.

in a few days i'm hitting the one year mark since i started learning korean!!! it feels so good and rewarding. this was the first time i decided to learn a new language (not as a class in school) and i'm actually surprised of how much i've been enjoying the process. i'm taking weekly personal courses online but i also recommend sticking to duolingo and lingodeer and holding on to that streak
