Interviews

Soon and very soon. I will be con­duct­ing inter­views with peo­ple from var­i­ous dis­ci­plines. Keep your eyes open. The first should come in the next week. Break­ing the thresh­old for many more inter­est­ing peo­ple. OK. Dig(g) it.

Update: Heather Ackley-Clements agreed to an inter­view! More on this next week!

I had these great tran­scen­dent plans of get­ting stuff done since before spring break. And here, HERE! I am the day before every­thing is due and still not done. My hopes right this moment is that if I begin writ­ing this post, I will get in the groove of writ­ing for­ever and before I know it every­thing will be written.

“Maybe in a mil­lion years every­body will be as smart as he was and see things the way he did. But, com­pared to the aver­age per­son of today, he was as dif­fer­ent as a man from Mars.” A few hours ago, Kurt Von­negut died.

Sat­urn turns hexag­o­nal.

This blows my mind for­ever. I have a hard time believ­ing this. I can’t see it. But it is hap­pen­ing. Think­ing in con­text about how big an area that hexa­gon is ver­sus how much space I occupy in the uni­verse. It takes me a sec­ond to con­tex­tu­al­ize this. An infi­nite amount of sec­onds. Dis­tances we mea­sure in time. And at this same moment hor­ri­ble things are hap­pen­ing. Peo­ple are being bru­tal­ized and killed and I can’t get over the uni­verse or myself or some planet.
