As Far As I Can Tell


This morning was really foggy on my way to work. As I spiraled up the parking garage it felt like I was ascending into a cloud. After seeing Waking Life last night, I had to keep asking myself if I was dreaming. The movie is a rotoscoped dream world that explores philosophical ideas of existentialism—really interesting.

Tonight is Dan’s BFA show at the Space, which I’m looking forward to. I was up there last night as he was setting it up, and it looks really great. He’s showing the work on trays hanging from the ceiling, with a single exposed bulb dangling over each one. I just burned the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack to play in the background at the show, so all in all it’s going to be very atmospheric.

The last few days have been un-seasonably warm, which means I got a chance to ride my moped. With this finicky Michigan weather, I’m not putting it away until it snows. The best thing about spring is bring the moped out again; I miss it already.

After so many years of being cynical, I'm surprised by how moved I was while watching Obama's speech. This is it, our chance for change.

Haircuts are one of the few times when I'm forced to just sit still and relax.

I love my headphones. The sound is so spatially separated that just now I swore I heard a noise downstairs while listening to Diplo.

Working on a conference abstract, so far it's a little obtuse.

Reminded again of the importance of backups. Sorry Isaiah.
