my mosaic.

This weekend, I was on six flights total. I played with 3 sets of lyrics: reformatted, organized, hand copied, and wrote a new piece. I got a lot of interview questions answered, meetings arranged, caught up on my rest.. but mainly, I devoured a threehundred and seventysomething page novel. When I read on planes, there’s always headphone input to help shut out the in-cabin clatter & drone.. to ease me into the story. Therefore, my playlists for multitasking tend to not be built on punchy or distracting elements. However, as I’ve mentioned once or twice, one of my favorite things to do is listen to a song… really listen to it, as my mind races around and through all of the different elements of the composition. So here are a few songs that go well with a book, or a pen, or just a block of time & silence. They’re simple & beautiful, but ornately woven; there’s a lot to hear in these simple pieces. no vocals or lyrics, but tons of story.

“Untitled #3” & “Untitled #4” -Sigur Ròs “Radio Ballet” -Eluvium “Theme from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” -Jon Brion [amazing movie with a masterful score] “Part II, C” -Keith Jarrett
