Logocentric (adj). Regarding words and language as a fundamental expression of an external reality (especially applied as a negative term to traditional Western thought by postmodernist critics). Sometimes I just write whatever I feel like. Other times I respond to prompts, many taken from the following places:  "The Soundtrackers Group"  "Invalid Item" "Blogging Circle of Friends " "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise" "JAFBG" "Take up Your Cross" Thanks for stopping by!  |
 | Day 15 | "Digital Love" by Larkins This is a song that I just discovered toward the end of last year, so I haven't had a chance to really get into the other music that Larkins has done to this point, but I love this song and I'm excited to check it out. I also really love the video for this song, which it notes at the beginning was "shot on February 17, 2021 between 12AM and 6AM in Central London on an iPhone." The empty streets and sidewalks and storefronts are a really powerful reminder of this pretty remarkable time in history when almost the entire world was sheltering in place for literally months and months. In other news, today (February 15th) marks the 20th anniversary of the day I joined Writing.com. It's hard to believe it's been twenty years; thinking back I realized that I signed up for this site while I was still in college, less than a year into my move from Sacramento to Los Angeles to pursue film school... and I can't even begin to count how many poems, short stories, and scripts ago. It's pretty remarkable; I've joined and left dozens of online communities in that span of time, but I've always considered Writing.com a kind of home. Somewhere I could work on my writing and build friendships no matter what else was happening in my life. I'll do a more detailed post reflecting on my time here, but... yeah... 20 years as of the 15th of this month...  |
| Day 14 | "Slow Song" by The Knocks (feat. Dragonette) This is another one-off song that was recommended on a Spotify playlist. I haven't really taken the time to listen to much else by The Knocks OR Dragonette, but I really liked this song and added it into the regular rotation of my listening last year. This past year, I've really gotten into electronic (especially electronic pop) music and have just been enjoying finding these standalone songs even if I'm never going to do a deep dive on the artists and explore their entire music catalogues like I might do with a singer/songwriter. The music features Aquaria as the central character, who was the winner of the tenth season of RuPaul's Drag Race in 2018. |
