So what you're saying is The Happening is possible? SOMEONE CALL MARKY MARK.

The Rothko Room in the Tate Modern is one of my favorite places anywhere (on a weekday morning, preferably). A kind of sombre, "unbearable silence" and the idea of being with (versus looking at) is such a great way of describing the power of his work.

Oh man! Well first: this was incredible. And second, this thing you experienced, suddenly being able to ride a normal bike again, is I think maybe a similar thing I (and many other people, I'm sure) experience learning to play pieces of music?

Especially when you're starting out on an instrument, you'll be trying to play a complex passage or figure and you'll jumble it a hundred times but then, suddenly, it just clicks. And it seems absurd that minutes ago you were totally unable.

This still happens to me today learning really complicated bluegrass banjo patterns. I'll sit there and curse my slow brain and slower fingers but then, out of nowhere, it'll just happen!

Wait... so millions of years ago there was some beast that would smell those awful things and think "YUM! DINNER!"? I can only imagine how bad its breath must have been...

Before I started making YouTube videos, I worked mostly as a composer and audio engineer ... named "Mike". Which, apparently, makes my name an APTONYM.
