It's mostly cartoons, with occasional movies or sitcoms I've internalised (Malcolm In The Middle, Seinfeld etc). Atm it's a Malcolm in the Middle clipshow! 👋 - I'm not actively editing the Dakumentary, but it's still in limbo, and much of my brain is thinking about how to wrap up that film. Hopefully the new ideas will equal 8 hours of footage, which sounds quite epic. I've shot about a third of the footage, and the Dak team as a whole probably shot about two-thirds. After the Election, I'll sort out the licenses for the TV news footage. - I'm attempting to read into the news, but it's a struggle: my brain is hyper-alert and tends to presume everything is about me (classic bipolar! 🤣) - Listening to music is the main thing I'm doing, which is why the daily playlists. I'm sort-of attempting to introduce the audience to the modernist music I love, but also pandering with the pop tunes. 👍
