Black and White
Today’s cover is of Lack of Color by Death Cab for Cutie. I first heard this song on a mix from a friend, and it’s tons of fun to play with a bit more twang; with a bit less finesse.
Watched La Jetée again tonight. A half-hour French “new wave” tale of post-WW3 time travel; the inspiration for 12 Monkeys.
I want to replace the audio with tracks from Cicada’s Technology Crisis 1 & 2.
Today I also read half-way through Full Frontal Feminism, the “young woman’s guide to why feminism matters” by Jessica Valenti of Feministing.com. Yes, it reads well for young men too. I wholeheartedly recommend it if, like me, you’re into the theory (and practice!) of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes, but are wary of the immense cultural backlash against the f-word. Crack it open if you’re only exposure to women’s studies was learning about the Seneca Falls Convention in middle school. I’ll do up a solid review when I’m done and ready.
