If we were starting this whole office thing today, it’s inconceivable we’d pay the rent/time/commuting cost to get what we get. I think in ten years the TV show ‘the Office’ will be seen as a quaint antique.

As any experienced meditator knows, the mind has a mind of its own. Left free to wander, that’s just what it will do. When we manage the infinite demands on our attention by trying to juggle them all, we literally weaken our capacity for absorbed focus.

To see a file on your hard drive spring to life with posters, fan art, and rich metadata is a wondrous thing indeed.

The Radio Dept. — You Stopped Making Sense
Honestly, I have fallen completely head over heels in love with The Radio Dept.’s latest offering, Clinging to a Scheme, and dreamy album closer “You Stopped Making Sense” is the cherry on top of what is undoubtedly going to be one of 2010’s essential albums.

A little spur-of-the-moment clip I took a few weeks back landing at Manchester Airport. The airport was closed for several hours that morning due to, as you’ll see, what seemed to be very localised snow. Pretty much everywhere other than directly around the airport was clear.
The (fantastic) soundtrack is “Girls” by Death in Vegas, from their album “Scorpio Rising”.
