I just love moving files around. I love data. I produce data, I store it, too. Moving/converting music files from Foobar to the legacy media player, then onto my handheld just feels right.

It would be even better if there was still some sort of storage swap involved, like a cassette, a diskette, or a disc, but this is fine, too.

It is almost too neat for me, though.

Ah, the sync is done. Time to unplug one thing, and then plug in something else: from USB‑C to headphone jack, I got all these fine little devices, some of them refined, some of them grimy, stuff I see every day, and no one else.

Even when I post work or study, I don’t do the studio tour anymore, at least, not for the public. I think what I do is treat everything like a dead drop: plug in, transactional exchange, and then disappear again.

And I wouldn’t have it another way.

I feel like I want to study more books by Karl Gerstner: I think I have three lying around.

But first: sleep, since it’s really late.
