In an attempt to spur insight, eloquence, and a jolt of inspiration into my otherwise mundane existance, I will begin a music fast tomorrow (sort of). I will only listen to Radiohead if I’m able to control my aural surroundings (clubs/bars exempt). That includes when I’m on the train, walking around downtown SF, inside Starbucks, or singing in the shower.
I’ve done this twice before about a year ago with 2Pac and Sufjan Stevens, for about 2 weeks each, which was interesting. Not sure I gained much from it, at least not perceivably, but change is always good and my right ear finally healed from this nasty middle ear infection/ruptured ear drum I’ve been going through the past week and half.
So huzzah! I hope this spurs some momentous works that’ll get me over this writing hump.
