Sleep Writing

Not sleeping much these days has made me realizing that I'm also not
writing much either.

Could probably use one to help solve the other.

big computers

had an epiphany rather early this morning:

we’re actually very large organic computers. we process info from our own version of the web, download info, chat, etc. and, it’s only a matter of time before the web we live in and the internet we live on merge to create one seamless database of universal and limitless access.

now marinate on that for a bit.

remembering a good book

my buddy peter wrote this while reflecting after his first few days in new york:
good photo and thought

it reminded me of this quote from The Unbearable Lightness of Being, by Milan Kundera:

'Franz said, "Beauty in the European sense has always had a premeditated quality to it. We've always had an aesthetic intention and a long-range plan. That's what enabled Western man to spend decades building a Gothic cathedral or a Renaissance piazza. The beauty of New York rests on a completely different base. It's unintentional. It arose independent of human design, like a stalagmitic cavern. Forms which are in themselves quite ugly turn up fortuitously, without design, in such incredible surroundings that they sparkle with a sudden wondrous poetry."'


just always thought this was a wonderful few turns of phrase.
