I'm mostly business mode atm. There's a lot of business shit to sort out.
1. Riddell Productions: the archives.
2. The Dakumentary -- permissions.
3. My technology situation.
4. The book.
The book, for me, is a business project rather than an art project.
I think it's an essential part of my philosophy, though I dislike being thought of as a cult leader or anything like that.
Obviously, I identify with Rua Kēnana and Carmen Rupe, though I'm some white kid from Christchurch.

Also, I'm not Gen Z. I'm 1994, so that puts me and Chlöe at the tail end of the Millenials. -
Generations are pseudo-science, though. Social class is a far more useful tool for analysing society.
Plus the book will probably elaborate on my proposals for the coffee house scene and how to regulate that. That'd be a good way to use Chlöe -- we could do an on-the-record interview and publish the transcript.
Ideally a fuller discussion with Gary and Mike and Steve Chiles. They've got the first-hand xp.

Again, I don't mind if I hunch slightly. That's a byproduct of training as a guitarist. 🤣
Jane's technique is more ergonomic, but it doesn't produce the tones. I'd rather be a great guitarist than a mediocre actor.
My voice... I think it's well-suited to demos, and if people like my jazz singing, that's a win for me.
I reckon Barbara would totally record Buddy's Eyes and The Ladies Who Lunch with me on guitar.
I realise the irony about the whole $13 socks are too pricey for me while spending money on food, booze and weed. 🤣
It's about priorities. I'm not all that keen on socks -- I'm planning to buy fleece-lined leggings.
Re: the bloomer style - I noticed the subcontinent ladies doing that during winter, and borrowed it.
