007:
My first video essay!! Some part of me thought I would *never* do this, that I don't have the skills, don't know how video editors work. Take that, limiting self-beliefs! I'm a YouTuber now!!
insane how good it feels to ship this

001: let's make 100 videos
Curious about the idiosyncrasies of the video format – how do videos "work"? How does YouTube "work"? What can you do with a video format that you cannot do as well in any other format?

005:
aesthetic resonance is when the cinematic universe of your life is coherent, with callbacks and inside jokes across domains
talismans are objects that represent meaningful stories to you (eg wedding rings). you can make your own talismans

006:
a high level of polish is not a desirable end-state in-of-itself; the point is to make good content first
it becomes interesting when you start thinking/seeing it as a resource management problem – life is too short to waste time polishing turds

009: The War of Art. If you do anything creative at all, I highly recommend this. Short and easy read, yet somehow lots of powerful points from someone who truly knows and lives the creative's struggle. Bound to find a burning truth that you're overlooking youtube.com/watch?v=dYtjAY…
