what made you want to start doing the audio journal reality things?
as a way of coaxing myself into success at a mountain-movingly hard project. in other words, if i do actually succeed in moving a mountain, the first hand documentary materials should surely be of very high value. so essentially by embarking on the journal project, i am now significantly amplifying the stakes of success, while also already feeling like i have a participatory leg in its success story. also serves as a remarkably good discussion/negotiation platform for the daily influx of zillions of conflicting strategies, and thus keeps me calm and organized during such conflict
