		<title>Andrew Bird Shows Me How To Write the Words</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning I sat down at my writing table with a notebook and my ukulele and a cup of coffee, and began strumming and humming a tune I&#8217;ve been working at for about a week now. I had the idea not long ago of taking mandolin chord shapes and playing them on the ukulele (which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Not to recognize, every moment, some passionate attitude in those about us, and in the brilliancy of their gifts some tragic dividing of their ways, is, in life’s short day of frost and sun, to sleep before evening.&#8221; &#8211; Walter Pater]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;You can all supply your own favorite, most nauseating examples of the commodification of love. Mine include the wedding industry, TV ads that feature cute young children or the giving of automobiles as Christmas presents, and the particularly grotesque equation of diamond jewelry with everlasting devotion. The message, in each case, is that if you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I am seized by two contradictory feelings: there is so much beauty in the world it is incredible that we are ever miserable for a moment; there is so much shit in the world that it is incredible we are ever happy for a moment.&#8221; &#8212; Geoff Dyer, from Otherwise Known as the Human Condition]]></description>

		<title>Busking in San Francisco &#8211; A $2 Bill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the past six weeks, I have been busking (playing music in the street for the entertainment of passers-by) as often as I can manage it on Valencia and in the 24th Street BART station &#8212; sometimes nearly daily. I&#8217;ve always wanted to do this, but for various reasons I never did. However I&#8217;ve discovered [...]]]></description>

		<title>My adventures in singing/songwriting begin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thus: Songwriting has been a significant creative challenge for me, particularly the lyrics. Chord progressions and melodies have always been fairly effortless for me, but the words are a whole other challenge &#8212; it reminds me a lot of the first time I tried (and failed) to write a novel. I&#8217;m throwing away a lot [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Book of Disquiet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately I&#8217;ve been reading the Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa, in the Margaret Jull Costa translation that Serpent&#8217;s Tail just put out. I&#8217;ll be writing about the book more in the future, I imagine, but in the meantime check out this amazing quote that I just found, copied into my journal from the beginning [...]]]></description>

The film consists entirely of footage of Gray himself, either performing his monologues or being interviewed.
