Joy . . .

https://drmichaelmcgee.com/joy/

T’is So Much Joy

‘T is so much joy! ‘T is so much joy!

If I should fail, what poverty!

And yet, as poor as I

Have ventured all upon a throw;

Have gained! Yes! Hesitated so

This side the victory!

Life is but life, and death but death!

Bliss is but bliss, and breath but breath!

And if, indeed, I fail,

At least to know the worst is sweet.

Defeat means nothing but defeat,

No drearier can prevail!

And if I gain, – oh, gun at sea,

Oh, bells that in the steeples be,

At first repeat it slow!

For heaven is a different thing

Conjectured, and waked sudden in,

And might o’erwhelm me so!

– Emily Dickinson

Not Sure . . .

. . . I understand . . .

https://wdrfree.com/stock-vector/download/cartoon-

kid-thinking-in-confusion-394243706

(from https://www.theverge.com/22310188/nft-explainer-what-is-blockchain-crypto-art-faq)

". . . What is an NFT? . . . Non-fungible token. . . “Non-fungible” more or less means that it’s unique and can’t be replaced with something else. For example, a bitcoin is fungible — trade one for another bitcoin, and you’ll have exactly the same thing. A one-of-a-kind trading card, however, is non-fungible. If you traded it for a different card, you’d have something completely different. You gave up a Squirtle, and got a 1909 T206 Honus Wagner, which StadiumTalk calls “the Mona Lisa of baseball cards.” (I’ll take their word for it.) . . . How do NFTs work? . . . At a very high level, most NFTs are part of the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is a cryptocurrency, like bitcoin or dogecoin, but its blockchain also supports these NFTs, which store extra information that makes them work differently from, say, an ETH coin. It is worth noting that other blockchains can implement their own versions of NFTs. (Some already have.) . . . Do people really think this will become like art collecting?. . . I’m sure some people really hope so — like whoever paid almost $390,000 for a 50-second video by Grimes or the person who paid $6.6 million for a video by Beeple. . . "

Blocked . . .

https://www.impactplus.com/blog/7-cant-miss-ways-to-

overcome-any-creative-roadblock

Something is wrong
The whole artery's locked.
Nothing's moving ahead.
Seems the road is just blocked.

Take a left through the pasture,

Or a right round the hay.

We must find an outlet,

Take a much better way.

Grains . . .

Grains of sand,

Too many to count,

Fill every void

Over each inch of ground.

Order . . .

https://www.izotope.com/en/learn/album-sequencing-in-the-age-of-streaming.html

(from https://www.izotope.com/en/learn/album-sequencing-in-the-age-of-streaming.html)

". . . We have heard about the “death of the album” for quite some time now. In consumption terms, this is partly true. Across all demographics, albums have lost their dominance over singles and playlists as the primary listening format. Both physical and digital albums sales are down too. To account for our new listening habits, the music industry now considers 1500 streams or 10 digital downloads the equivalent of one album copy purchase. . . While these stats may seem like reasons NOT to make an album, the opposite is true. Albums can still move an artist's career forward without selling a single copy. Take Chance the Rapper. He built his reputation for remaining unsigned to a major record label and dropping his mixtapes online for free. Many of the biggest names in rap today followed a similar pattern. . . With albums no longer a sales driver, artists can use the format more freely to make their statement and earn credibility. In 2013, Boards of Canada delighted fans with a bizarre scavenger hunt leading to the live-stream of their fourth album Tomorrow’s Harvest. And Both Frank Ocean and Beyonce have put out recentish albums with conceptual video pieces attached to them. . . Albums tell the story of an artist or group at a specific moment in time that one or two singles cannot. Think of a recent album you really enjoyed listening to. Would it have been as impactful released as a slew of singles over the course of a year? Probably not. . . When it comes time to release your long-form music project, one thing that definitely needs to be considered is its sequencing—i.e. the ordering of songs to create a compelling narrative and flow. This is where albums have a leg up over playlists. . . "
