I tend to fill my ears with music and audiobooks while working on visual stuff (I prefer silence when working with words). Right now I'm going between Alone Together, Why We Expect More From Technology and Less From Each Other by Shelly Turkle and Why be Happy When You Could Be Normal by the wonderful Jeanette Winterson (there are so many good juicy bits in this book that I may have to read a tactile version later).

I'm photographing and compiling the ephemera that fills my drawers and will soon be selling each piece for 25 cents in a store on this website. Credit cards and pennies will be accepted.
