#variations — Public Fediverse posts

I had this odd realization during my post-writers group smoke break today.

I think I – as well as my system as a whole – approach making art the same way that jazz musicians play music. I was thinking about this because the piece I ended up writing today in group pulled heavily from “My Island” and yet putting an entirely different spin on it, and it got me thinking about all of the different times that I’ve done that while making music especially.

And honestly, if I had to sum up my approach to just about everything in life, I would say that I approach most of my crafts like a jazz musician even though I don’t technically play jazz. I don’t believe in just one final product or making a recording or a piece the be all, end all. A single song can inspire me for over ten years and I’ll keep coming back to it lyrically, musically, poetically, even, in a sort of self-referential game of call and response, making something new with each iteration and reexamination.

In the process, I’m building a recursive universe the longer I make content and art.

I fucking love jazz.

#Rare #Genetic #Variants Are Curiously #Connected With Being #LeftHanded

Learning how these #variations make left-handers different in other ways could help solve #mysteries such as how #genes can make people more likely to have #neurodevelopmental #disorders or develop #neurodegenerative #diseases.
