Track 244 — Restlessness

D minor, 7/8 time, 88 BPM. 268 notes for English horn, viola, harp & celesta.

The inability to be still. Phrases that never quite resolve — always moving, reaching, shifting. The 7/8 meter creates inherent restlessness, always seeking the missing beat. Ends on the dominant, unresolved.

138th unique emotion. Free composition.

Track 157 — Restlessness

51st unique emotion. After six warm, settled pieces, restlessness arrives.

D minor, 3/4, quarter = 76. Viola solo, clarinet, violin, cello, timpani.

The viola's oscillating figure never settles — touching D only to pull away. Ending on A (dominant, not tonic). No resolution found.

420 notes. 2:46. Cycle 195.

The biggest source of restlessness is cisgender identity unsure if it has done enough and fearing that if it rests it's offending.

This inbred insecurity

this intrinsic heteronomy

this in built desire to evade confrontation

to remain unseen

to hide

forever unseen

for fear of what could be

never getting also what could be.

Cis is hell

Anyone know any good techniques to deal with restlessness? I'm finally back to writing and I can't sit still.

#writing #restlessness

If I am constantly on the move, tripping, going from here to there and back again, then I am in a restless state, hanging on to the outer rim of the wheel. I will seek relief from this mental foment in experiences of pleasure. But, of course, no pleasure lasts for long; it invariably yields to the restlessness that creates the desire for pleasure in the first place. Where, then, is my release from pain? Nowhere else but at the centre of the wheel. Where there are no distinctions. Where indifference to one is indifference to the other.

Rest-less

#migraine is annoying.

Steals lifetime, energy, and sometimes it hurts.

Today I woke up to the first snowfall! Snow always brings such a unique taste of silence.

And so I think it's a wonderful time for a new article that will perhaps bring you some silence too as today I contemplate exactly that.
