daring to call yourself something

i just read someone's linkedin update and it made me think. a girl who graduated in motion design now felt too confined by branding guidelines, 6 months after working in that sector, now transitioned to being a motion artist with capital A. after reading her reasoning, i see her as such now. i think that it's important that when you're trying to become something or be someone, it's important to dare to call yourself what you are. am i making sense? i didn't sleep much last night..

having a favorite lecture

reviewing an old lecture slide deck and being reminded of why i do any of this. that was the day i thought, huh maybe this will all be worth it in the end. maybe the scientists of the past, in their endless pursuit of knowledge, were all just chasing the spark i felt too. black box opens 2024 (62 slides)

Moments of clarity

Got some news yesterday about someone I love Suddenly a lot of things mattered less Some wishy washy desires became goals For a little while I had X-ray vision The world sped up and slowed down at the same time — I didn’t like the news but I’m glad I know it, because it was already a thing, so better to know All at once without warning I’m living on a different planet: it is barren, hostile, rocky, and dry But I know there are treasures here. I’m going to find them.
