Listening to a field recording.
What does it take to fill a minute?
I feel, in making these little videos, that question as very present. I notice the temptation to make it a "good" minute - to make it exciting or interesting - and all of those thoughts bringing my own judgements and assumptions to the foreground.
But instead I try and stay on task - when my watch hits 1pm, I record what I think is a minute. Whatever happens in that minute goes here. It clearly fills a minute - since, you know, it did.
Some minutes are better than others only if we agree on what "better" means. This seems true. But also seems to slither out of questions of context and focus. Still thinkings - your thought more than welcome.
As are actually, your minutes. If you want to play along, I'd happily post them here. Maybe our minutes can be seen best in the relation to each others.
