today’s episode gets into life’s meaning and my brain while i reflect on the default mode network using stereo guitar effects pedals after reflecting on the brain and listening to the art of living by thich nhat hanh again.
one of the reasons i love and cherish what i create on song dot land is that while i record, all thought pauses while my fingers move and my brain sings out in real time, in the present moment, all without proper active thought. it is a flow state, a concentrated state in the task-positive network of the brain, and the best way i know how to spend 30 minutes.
the rambling, lost processing is especially clear in this episode when i begin purring like a cat. i did not expect to share a track with human purring on it.
i especially loved the way this episode builds and ends in the last five minutes. “i say yes / misery says no / i say yes.”
