There is one line where I use this to my advantage, I could wait at the bus stop for the next 417, but if I miss it by a short time I know that if I catch the 137 that the 417 will pick up all of the passengers from the stops and so the 137 won't have to stop as many times, and I will usually be able to run from one to the other.
Write a diary and make yourself your own therapist.
Apart from daily writing, my own philosophy to life is to move very slowly and concentrate on the minutiae of everyday existence. There is joy in the patterns of the gravel.
Lastly, I would say study | create simply for the act in itself. This goes hand in hand with the writing, and the appreciation of the mundane.
>No matter the field, discipline, or industry, if we want to succeed, we must master the networks…The harder it is to measure performance, the less performance matters.
although i absolutely agree with the analysis of the art world, or world in general, to actually read this makes me very disheartened. and it does not make me want to give up any time spent creating for the sake of networking.
but on modern artists, with my own favourites, there is generally a reason to their success other than being brilliant marketers...Jackson Pollock, for example, had lots of criticism of his work, only for forty years later to discover that his paintings could be judged to be real or fake, by whether or not there were fractals present [1]. i think that is a clear case of someone taking a modern approach to creation, and spending countless hours honing and perfecting their craft for the sake of pure natural aesthetics and discovery.
this article paints like the artists themselves are as fame hungry as the artists critics. lo to find that the 21st century van gogh avoided the art scene completely because of toxicity.
decentralised web and universal 5G - if anybody still thinks that we need something like fb for universal connection, they're presumably missing out the billions of people that still don't have access to flowing webware.
I am in the USA, specifically Seattle, so I'd assume I have better than average coverage. 4G is spec'd at 100Mbps. If you're lucky, you'll get 40-70Mbps download, and <10Mbps upload. If you're not fortunate enough to have city-tier coverage, then you're probably at the national average at <20Mbps. 5G is spec'd at 1000Mbps.
n.b. reading _Finnegans Wake_ out loud is fundamental to the purpose of the book and it's enjoyment as a reader. I find myself laughing regularly and not knowing exactly why; maybe just because of the surrealist nature of the language.
