I love your list of 5 things that make you happy! I know some of your favorite books, but what are your favorite movies and music?

Funny you should ask about music. When I made that post about Jonathan Carroll and how he hand wrote the first page to one of his books for me, the lead singer / songwriter of the band Cloud Cult hand wrote the lyrics to one of his songs for me too!

I discovered the music of Cloud Cult back in 2006. I heard the KEXP Song of the Day "Take Your Medicine" and it blew my mind! It was a religious experience for me. And I've been a huge fan ever since. I am quoted in the book "Chasing the Light: The Cloud Cult Story" on page 109 about that song.

I've attended all of their Los Angeles shows since 2006. I even flew up to Minneapolis just to hear them play with the Minnesota Orchestra back in April 2018.

Something special Cloud Cult does during their shows, they have two artists on stage who are painting during the performances. As an audience member enjoying the music, we also get to watch these two paintings take shape during the show. It's a pretty spectacular experience. At the end of the show they raffle the paintings to the highest bidder. I have two of them.

But to continue answering your question about favorite music, since 2005 Last.fm has tracked most of the music I have been listening to. These are the artists I've listened to the most since 2005.

As for movies... of course, I am a child of Star Wars. I saw the original in the theater back in 1977 when I was 7 years old. I felt a strong pull towards the Jedi. Star Wars (and Yoda) are probably my #1 influence for becoming a Buddhist. (Followed by the influence of Beat writers like Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg. Who led me to Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, and Alan Watts.)

And I have a very strong nostalgia for 1970s sci-fi like Logan’s Run and all the Planet of the Apes movies. And Disney’s The Black Hole released in 1979 (the children's version of 2001: A Space Odyssey).

And my #1 favorite movie is 2001: A Space Odyssey directed by Stanley Kubrick who also did The Shining (totally an art film, and NOT a horror movie).

But with Twin Peaks I fell in love with David Lynch and everything he does. He is my #1 favorite director. Each of his movies is a brilliant delight to uncover.

Darren Aronofsky’s The Fountain is an amazing work of science, philosophy, spirituality, science fiction, and history. His movie Mother! is also fantastic (about God/Javier Bardem and Mother Earth/Jennifer Lawrence). Darren is probably in my Top 5 filmmakers.

Let me think: David Lynch, Stanley Kubrick, Wes Anderson, Darren Aronofsky. Hmm... which director should come next? Francis Ford Coppola? Alfred Hitchcock? Steven Spielberg?

But for more lighthearted fare, I adore The Thin Man movies. I love William Powell and Myrna Loy. And also Cary Grant. Pre-WWII movies are my comfort movies. An escape. Safe and comfortable. I've watched a lot of them since 2016.

Fundamentally Broken

Yesterday we all heard the announcement that Justice Stephen Breyer is retiring from his seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.  Although Justice Breyer has been a valuable member of the Court for more than 20 years, almost 30, it was the right decision and likely one that, much as I loved her, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg should have made several years prior to her death.  It is a sad statement of our…

I lived in New York’s, East Village starting in the very early eighties. My roomate Darcy and I were on 12th street and First avenue. There were quite a few well known people who were living on our block or one over. Across the street was the poet, Allen Ginsberg. I’d see him on a daily basis. There was the painter Larry Rivers, who was always at the coffee shop I ate at. Caddy-corner was Richard Hell of the Voidoids, a nice bloke. Joe Jackson and Jodie Foster were on 13th street. I’d also see Richard Butler of the Psychadelic Furs at the bodega. Jennifer Beals would always be popping in and out of her apartment. It was quite gritty but all of us arty types loved the action in that legendary neighborhood in those days and that was just my tiny block.

on music mode...just watched this old 2002 mcr concert and god it's. incredible. i doubt you have any works/books on it but do you have any that are at least on creating? doesn't even have to be music but god just watching that made me feel all pumped and encourages me to get better at guitar (it's not necessary, just really excited :]])

oh FUCK. fuck. stuff about creating. stuff about creating that is vaguely adjacent to mychem. fuck i am digging around in my brain there are piles of clutter everywhere.

if u want like. mychem adjacent stuff.. then like.. baz luhrmann's romeo + juliet. velvet goldmine. my own private idaho. the tv show we are lady parts. cabaret. chicago. jennifer's body. (<- literally none of thse are fucking books but. whaddevverrr <3) but u r an mcr blog u probably knew all that already </3

if u want books and stuff specifically, try the beat poets, maybe- i won't recommend anyone specific, but. y'know. you can poke around w/ them. (this is partially bc i am chickening out i don't want More Discourse... beat poetry is like. one of the areas where u gotta like. idk. be aware of what you're consuming- allen ginsberg was shitty but he wrote some brilliant stuff. same w/ jack kerouac. same w/ a whole lot of other ones 😭 like, there's some wonderful writing and you shouldn't let anything spoil it for u, but just. yknow. grain of salt.) ALSO also also while we're at it u should look up andrea gibson on yt they're a slam poet who writes a lot of stuff abt transness and self-creation and stuff like that >:))

also also allso i don't wanna dig thru transcripts right now but!! if u have time. u should check out the podcast alice isn't dead.
