"Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them."

"There is something about holding-in and release that seems essential to all processes of composition; it may be related to gathering strength, or tensing before some explosive physical act. I think much creativity is dispersed before a creative product is achieved because of talk, tweet, constant expression. It is as though there are a few holes in your lungs; you prepare to leap across some span and take a deep breath, but before you feel the fullness of it as it saturates your blood, you are leaking it out; you cannot even finish a breath without losing some, and so no breath is satisfying, and you are always slightly winded, as though you have emphysema. Incessant self-expression, the constant evacuation of the mind onto the cutting room floor that is the unstructured Internet of social networks, leaves you creatively a bit weakened, pale."

President Obama just took off from the South Lawn of the White House.
He’s headed to Mexico and Costa Rica to reinforce the deep cultural, familial, and economic ties that so many Americans share with Mexico and Central America.
