Hello again, insomnia you focker. I’ve somehow managed to get less & less sleep every day this week. You’d think that the fatigue would catch up to me but no.

More Notes & Asides
There’s nothing like having the #motivation to do something and then running into repeated unexpected issues that suck the motivation right out of you. I wish all of my technology would just fucking work consistently so I can focus on figuring out my processes for productivity instead of troubleshooting something that was working fine 2 days ago 🤬🤬🤬
I remember the day #KurtCobain died so clearly. It was April 5, 1994; I was a senior at #NorthwesternUniversity. I had no classes that day. I woke up, showered, and put on combat boots, brown linen pants, black t shirt & my #SocialDistortion Skelly hat. (Why I recall my outfit I have no idea.) I heard on the radio that they ‘found a body’ in Cobain’s house & didn’t think much of it. I figured somebody had OD’d and maybe it was him – but prolly not because he should be happy with his phenomenal success, no? I walked over to a friends’ apartment. We were hanging out & drinking MGD when the real news came out. We were stunned. I have no recollection what the rest of the day was like, what we talked about or anything. I wish he’d gotten the help he needed. Photo by Adam Jones. ...
#TMNT was OUTSTANDING! Purty #art, well written, plenty of feels, great #characters, great #CharacterDesign – and it was FUNNY. The #90s #HipHop was cherry on the cake, with #ODB an unexpected surprise. #WuTang
Do I understand correctly that #PatrickNagel’s style was based on tracing & stylizing photographs? I suppose they’re #remixes but it I can’t help rolling my eyes 🙄 https://www.musictimes.com/articles/104220/20240610/duran-duran-original-rio-girl-found-after-42-years.htm Photo credits: Capitol Records, Vogue Paris
This is fascinating, especially if you’re into #lofi music & sounds. Now I’m tempted to buy a VCR just for recording & mucking up #audio (this will be done in my non-existent free time 😆). How much do you want to bet that #BoardsOfCanada did this years ago? #Music #VHS #RetroSounds
