Love his prose style, and his way of thinking. Feels very '2020s'.

Just finishing up, it’s remarkably dense, but I don’t think I’ve found a work of theory as of late that is both incredibly graspable and topical, there’s some interesting thoughts about prose poetry and the role of literature in the 21st century I keep thinking about. it wears its Jameson influence on its sleeve but it’s worth picking up

Immense, labyrinthine, horny. No one does prose and story like the boy TP. Give yourself to the rhythm.

Blindsided by this, really sad. The list of Albini's productions is jaw-dropping. Magnolia Electric Company is one of the great pieces of post-industrial Americana, bleak and beautiful. Farewell Transmission is Jason Molina's most powerful recording, but the album (incl. outtakes) is stacked. Heavy & gorgeous, suitable for the moment.

Tearing up right now instead of working. I moved to the city as the last of Williamsburg's artistic energy was spent, and I moved to the edge of the neighborhood after it was already hollowed out. God bless the few places that are still interesting: Spectacle, Union Pool, Ore Bar, Blue Sun, Miriam Gallery, The P.I.T., Baby's, etc.
Are there places in NYC with a real artistic scene now, or did our new way of living end that possibility? Please don't say Hudson, there's no way I can learn to make furniture.

More of a look back on the making of the album, no footage from the actual recording, iirc. But great banter, good insights into the process.
The Wilco doc about making Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is good and dramatic, too—I Am Trying to Break Your Heart.
