Im sick of making and consuming art through screens. Open Mics are a god send however I still need to use screens for promoting and establishing myself and finding my fans. Perhaps once I have enough fans I will start a newsletter rather than posting videos online.
I find it tedious and I even said to my Doctor I feel like a dopamine drug dealer. I have thought about writing more about my personal life on here and how I got into this situation I guess I can bitch and moan about people who know me here because none of them read my work or pay attention to what I am doing anyway. Which I completely understand because they have their own lives to live.
What prompted me to write this response is I am visiting a family friend. It is a friend of my mother’s who I mentioned in another post. She started watching Harry Potter and I can’t understand why. I have my own personal reasons for not enjoying watching movies anymore but I can’t see the point of sitting on the couch watching a kids movie when you are in your 60’s.
I get she is an adult and can do what she wants but she has other goals and dreams she has told me about and I just feel by watching this movie she is losing traction on achieving her dream. That’s two hours she won’t get back and she has lots of work to do! I feel that movies are rarely an art form and serve as more of a distraction. Perhaps I will make a movie myself one day and be considered a hypocrite. Plus I am not much of a fan of actors as I see them as professional liars.
