yooooo
(hi Alex)
Rules:
Always post the rules
Answer the questions of the person who tagged you
Then write eleven new ones
Tag eleven people
Let them know you tagged them
1. What have you been interested in recently/generally in life, and why? (In the orient, instead of asking ‘What [profession] do you do] when aquatinting oneself with a stranger, they ask this. Which I think is rather lovely).
uhh eating. sleeping. CDs because they're shiny
I wanna do more art, go to galleries, write up ideas, make spontaneously, spend more time than three days on a uni project
because I wanna explore what's relevant to me by making art to show people
2. If you could live a day entirely through someone else’s perspective, who would it be? And why?
I've become really curious about Adina's perspective of things, not just her opinions regarding issues but her literal POV, it's evidently different to mine and I didn't realise how much so at first
there are similarities too though, which is quite nice
3. If you could live a day entirely through the perspective of an animal, what animal would it be?
argh I dont rly like this question, there are too many animals! if I was really curious I'd want to spend the next year being a different animal each day
I like jellyfish but I think it would be a bit shit being a jellyfish
idk maybe a bird? it'd be cool knowing what it's like with the sky being so familiar
4. If you found out God existed, and you had the opportunity to prepare a long-ish paragraph/speech/sentence to say to him - what would it be?
"I just wanna apologise on behalf of Ricky Gervais and Richard Dawkins, they're
they're really embarrassing"
5. If a person magically appeared, naked, right next you, right now (Imagine you’re alone) and you said to them, something of a similar sentiment to; “WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU HOW DID YOU GET HERE AAAAAH’; and they then shrugged and sheepishly said ‘Ehh, don’t want to talk about it’, how do you imagine the following conversation would go? (Like, what would you say - what would they say et cetera)
..you want me to write a duologue??
me: WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU HOW DID YOU GET HERE AAAAAH
them: I don't like Karl Lagerfeld and his abundance of antiquated fashion ideals.
me: dude its 3am
them: lol *disappears*
6. If only one thing that you’ve made or written or sung or drawn or created in any shape or form could be broadcast to everyone in the world, what would it be?
this
7. (Similar) If you could give only piece of advice/wisdom to the whole world - what would it be?
I'd probably share the best piece of advice I've ever received, which came from a guard outside my uni's bar, given while I was struggling with the zip on my shoulder bag to show him my insulin:
"Hey man, just slow down"
8. Would you kill another human being so you could live?
this question stresses me out
I don't want to kill but I value my life a lot
I don't wanna be in this situation
9. Would you take a pill that meant you could live forever physically?
(There are varying degrees of parameters to this question
1. Would you do it given that you would outlive everyone that you love?
2.Would you do it given that everyone you love would also live forever?
3. Would you forfeit having children at the expense of your own continued existence?)
god Alex
aight
that sounds horrid but it would allow me to write the perfect Faustian stage production
suffering the end of existence itself sounds better with loved ones but also I dont wanna subject them to that so maybe not
yes
10. If you could choose to go to heaven or hell, which would you go to? And why? (This is given that this is the Christian ideal of Heaven and Hell, so think about the sort of people and who would be there)
if hell is a place without god then we're already there? if heaven is a place with god then maybe we're already there? idk
why is this based on the sort of people who get to heaven and hell? how..
how do we know who goes where? does, say, John Lennon meet enough of the christian ideal to go to heaven? it doesn't matter I probably don't and I'm not fussed about meeting John Lennon
I don't think I've answered this question
I'm, tired
heaven's probably full of white middle class trash anyway
11. If you could only listen to one composer/singer/musician for the rest of your life, who would it be?
I guess someone really varied with a huge output so I wouldn't get so easily bored of the same thing
idk who though
uhh Brian Eno? Richard D. James? I could get to know John Cage or Steve Reich?
actually if we're going for sheer quantity, then Buckethead
12. What’s the happiest moment of your life?
lots of moments last week with Adina were pretty good wow
but actually, one of my happiest was when dad had just taken me home from go-karting, I was probably like 12 or 13, my back had bruises from the plastic seat, mud that had got in through my helmet visor was on my face, and I felt silently euphoric
idk why really, but it was blissful
my questions:
1. do you like rock n roll music
2. (8) cos Im not sure that I dooo (8)
ok real questions tho
1. what's the thing that you most appreciate in your immediate surroundings? (why?)
2. what one lil thing could've potentially changed you as a person today?
3. where's your favourite place? (could be the tiniest or the biggest place, any place)
4. check out this plane, pretty cool right?
5. what's your favourite band/artist/musician/etc. and whats your least favourite thing about your favourite band/musician/artist/etc.
6. do you think that every single occupation could be considered an art form in it's own right?
7. right, but would that make fine art as we know it redundant?
8. idk man, I just think it's worth reconsidering, I want art to be relevant still, you know? look, wanna grab some coffee? I could use a coffee
9. What's a thing in your life now that reminds you of being a child?
10. answer question 1 again, but not here, write it on a lil piece of paper, fold it up, and leave it in the place you are right now
11. er, who would win in a fight between Tom Hiddleston and Christopher Ecclestone? (this is important)
I dont really interact with anyone on tumblr but I'll tag a few people I know
adinagul, ifthisdoesntworkimgivingup (again), huttdawgblawg, violenthands, thejoeyp, cosmicscale
someone put me to bed now pls
