A fic written 2 years ago is NOT OLD. Two years is nothing. Two years ago was yesterday.

You KNOW classic SF used the limited displays of CRT television and the static of transmitted signals the way theaters use stage makeup and lighting to make inexpensive props look great fine— take advantage of the medium! But it's hard to imagine how it looked if you've only seen Blu-ray HD restorations.

Ask yourself, how does this piece make you feel? (No wrong answers)

Look for an artist statement nearby. What does it say about the artist and their relationship to their work? What does the artist say that they are trying to convey with their art? What contextual clues can you pick up from what they say about their background, or what they omit?

Look at the title of the piece. What is the artist saying about their work by naming it that, either explicitly or implicitly?

Look at the medium. Is there anything about the piece that stands out to you, knowing what it's made of?

Look at the year it was made. What cultural events might have been happening around this time? Was this piece part of a particular art movement? What was the purpose of that art movement, and what was it trying to say?

I will break down this song properly in the future BUT I cant even count how many times I listened to it (and cried to it). Every time I hear it it breaks something open inside me and to me it's so healing. Like truly. I love it so much. Like so goddamn much. And dont get me started on the vocals. Holy mother of christ. Everyone and I mean everyone is so talented in this cast. I love them.

This brings me SO MUCH JOY.
