Airport notes
- The circus spires of Manhattan, bedrock splinters, antenna azimuths, surrogate steel, offshore investments, east of east in the west, home.
- An exercise for airport queues: look at each face and imagine their unbelievable potential through a specific caricature (a princess, an astronaut). Next time you see them around the bend, imagine the opposite—their worst self (a killer, a leech). Then, imagine the realistic middle scenario.
- What do you call two people who share a half-sibling but are not related?
- Only converge into expansive containers. If you're going to put yourself in a box, ensure it has trap doors and mirrors on all sides.
- You can never know if the present moment will survive the great filter of human memory but you can be fairly sure it won’t.
- I remember logging about a (crypto?) ad near gate B24 a few years back. The act of turning a basic perception into a sentence records it to memory.
