it's so good. i've done it since i was a kid. have you ever tried it? nighttime is the best, here's how i do it:
1. i walk into a room with a heavy, cozy, persian carpet on the floor. (in my apartment, there's only one such room.)
2. i lie down (on the floor).
3. i listen to music.
it's pretty easy, really. try it! i've attached a screen grab where you can see how it's done. that's hirayama from perfect days (great film).
here are three tracks for nighty night-time listening in no particular order.
• when u sleep
• you have telescoping arms and fingers (but I still love yooou!)
• et bånd

laid in bed listening to this last night while trying to stay awake waiting for my laundry to be done, i was extremely tired since i’d been up since 4AM tho. kept the music on just loud enough to keep me alert but low enough to let me drift off intermittently. highly recommend the experience.
you’ll get lost in the textures, have weird half dreams while you fight off sleep, notice the progression and slight changes over the course of the song, and overall lose perception of time

okay, you don't have to be rude about it. but you can actually say to objects, "hey, object, you're another kind of object now."
when reading before bed last night, i couldn't remember where my bookmark was. so i just threw out my arm into space, let my hand find... something.
a drink coaster.
and—yeah. i just threw it in there. in the book. and it worked! (at least, i think it did. i haven't tried reading again today.)

»in an effort to combat overpopulation, the postmortem social network 'anvil' is released.«
okay obviously, i don't rec or look forward to a social network like that. it sounds fucking horrible. but, but, but—the music video is dark and disturbing and absolutely beautiful. and the track slaps, too.
just drove a friend home, and after dropping her off, i queued this one up and slowly drove back through the night on almost-empty streets.
