Eres tú la droga de mi cuerpo


 
There might not be something better that getting untouched notebooks on a rainy day. I keep a zebra sarasa clip pen behind my ear during all hours that involve me being at my desk. There is nothing more joyous than reflecting on a problem, jotting ideas down, seeing a bunch of personal hullabaloo on a paper Hieroglyphics for the future, no doubt. I'll currently be trying to feel these two notebooks out for the year. The last notebook I completed was almost 500 pages, containing several sides of my life between 2016–2019. It is my most prized, locked possession.. It is my most prized, locked, possession. I'll be approaching my expression with these two notebooks a little more differently.

The Leuchtturm1917 will likely be filled with all sorts of wander. It will likely be the one I brainstorm, journal, and travel with. I am in desperate need of an executive assistant at work, so I have dedicated my first page reflecting on how to designing a system that is grounded on many, many layers of AI-Human collaboration research. Building that is likely what I will be dedicating my weekend too. 

The Hobonichi Graph Notebook will be dedicated none other than to my bajo quinto lessons / バホ・キントのレッスン . Ya tu sabe! The bajo quinto has turned out to be quite the challenging rhythmic engine. On top of that, tabs are scarce! I'm currently relying on Youtube Tios from 12 years ago to show me the way. My deepest respects to these lads, as learning by ear is a skill I have yet to hone. Current evening operations revolve around mapping out Eres Mi Droga by Intocable. I need to visit Zapata, Texas, and all these border towns that gave origin to these bands. What were these tios seeing & living to make such timeless music for the culture? Who's the muse? I'll keep the pen gliding crisply over this paper until I find the answers.
