if it means I get to use my NES controller, I'm in

where the snow fools the eye

and the wind whispers...

every time I sit down at my DAW after hours of procrastination, I wonder to myself "what the Fuck was I doing wasting away on the couch? This rocks"

I then proceed to be upset at exactly 2 bars for the next 5 hours, curse life, lament my abysmal speed, and by the end of it feel creatively satisfied

no, you see, you can only be a great composer if you destroy your own hands in a manic pursuit of perfection, and then slowly lose your mind because you're terrified of losing your mind

it's in the rulebook of great composers, which I wrote in my treehouse where only boys are allowed

they're hearing the boobies

they're hearing the boobies and they go "eeew boobies" because they're 9 years old and girls aren't allowed in their treehouse

in college, I couldn't remember any of the terminology for a Discourse Analysis exam

so for each I substituted a sentence, as if every time to mean "chair" you'd write "object with 4 legs intended for human seating"

passed with a 16/20

had I been a slopper, my brain wouldn't have had the stamina

this conversation started on the subject of owning one's taste and standing for one's convictions

you have yours, which is a good thing

I think the value of artistic difference depends entirely on the strength of each of our convictions, with the understanding that they need not cause animosity

you can always learn from something great

and if it's too great to repeat, as most great things are, then the more important and valuable it becomes

even those can teach you what not to do

and of course we impose on it, that's the definition of criticism, it builds our taste and so creates in us an artistic identity

all art is play, self-expression, but that's the departure point. A great work strives to resonate beyond that, and achieves it

a bad film can still teach something, doesn't make it good

I've also seen modest films be better than hollow blockbusters

I've written absolutely terrible music, with maybe one good melody in it. It was still garbage as a whole

sometimes I rescue a good melody from those things for something else

the guitar player analogy doesn't work, meanwhile, because the ability of the guitar player to play well has no bearing on whether the piece of music is good

a film with a star-studded cast, oscar-winning director and writer, and an A-level team behind it all can still be a bad film

certainly, a bad film is still a film

fundamentals are the beginnings of technical expertise, which is expected to be under developedment in the context of student work

beyond that context, technical expertise translates to production quality, which I said does not by itself guarantee a good film
