sammneiland: “so i was listening to radiolab earlier today. (its a radio show they play in the US, basically a pretty random show that covers all sorts of interesting topics) and they were talking about the concept of “loops”
and one of the sections they were talking about audio tape loops. this one guy was basically digitzing a bunch of them. but while he was in the middle of recording them, they started to deteriorate and fall apart. like the iron oxide on the tape just started coming off. all while it was recording. so it sounds like these musical loops are just slowly being destroyed. like the melodies contained on them are just slowly being washed to way.
and it sounds so god damn beautiful. you just have to listen to it to even understand.”
Journal Entry June 13 2002
A letter from myself 10 years ago, musing on creativity and love.
“In the pool today, thought of the fact that no matter what I create, I will never be able to create another person with whom I can share myself. I must rely on something utterly outside of my control to bring my equal to me. I want someone who can revel in creation with me. When the air is charged, I will know. I can create people in my mind, imagine scenes with people who already exist, but they do not matter. I want a partnership. Debating writing another journal like a completely different person. How much fun it would be to create all new realities! I could do anything and no one could let me down.”
What have you learned in the last 10 years?
So now the sadness comes— the revelation. There is a depression after an answer is given. It was almost fun not knowing. Yes, now we know. At least we know what we sought in the beginning. But there is still the question: why? And this question will go on and on until the final answer comes. Then the knowing is so full, there is no room for questions.
