But you mentioned cinematic landscape and I immediately thought of the movie Babette's Feast. I saw it recently and it was one of those movies that while you're watching it you're almost lulled to sleep by how slow it is and then by the end you realize you're actually forever changed and that the Scandinavian blues and old kitcheware/cooking ASMR and the sound of cold wind was hypnotizing you.

I’m used to watching slow movies but yesterday I watched ‘Out-Takes from the Life of a Happy Man‘ (2012) by Jonas Mekas, Who Is very well known in the film community for his groundbreaking editing and pioneering post modernist experimental film. beyond all of that I feel like a nice slow experimental movie once in a while is the greatest thing to do. The impact feels like literature and now I’ve really come to the idea that film is the literature of our century, so watching a slow movie even if it’s a short movie it can have a great impact, that kind of hit that you only feel with an art piece that resonated with you. Movies like this are poetic, spontaneous, they make you question why are you even taking the time to sit there and witness them, but the truth is that the real power of art in our generation resides in the willing and vulnerability of the viewer to feel welcomed inside a piece, once you accept it is you who have to give a meaning to this kind of film, then the messages and symbols inside of it turn to you completely.

One of the top three films of the last decade. One of my favorite movies of all time. All of the films I rewatch over and over have a cool, blue tone vibe. Languorous - like taking the time to remember the thing that has been lost in slow detail. Lost in Translation, Porco Rosso, Inherent Vice, CMBYN. An Asian film made in Italy. Vibes immaculate.
The most blissful cut of the last decade is Armie Hammer turning at the sudden sound of a train whistle and then cutting to the train station.

Getting to love films, and other things in life, that go with a slow pace is really enriching.
I recommend all of you to go watch Perfect days by Wim Wenders.

Look i know it's not hip or indie or chic and it's most definitely brain soda. But I truly never get tired of analyzing other people's relational problems as a way of violently ignoring my own.

1. Wake up
2. Don't look at your phone. Forget the news. Turn on some relaxing tunes.
3. Make your brekkie.
4. Put some puzzle pieces together as you munch away.
5. Go about the rest of your day with the pure joy and serene satisfaction that only really a puzzle can give.
