Good YouTube #18

feeling incredibly frustrated today. tried to edit audio and it sounded great in Audition, but when I exported the files, TERRIBLE. like two planes taking off inside your ears. and then I learn audio sounds different inside the programme than it does outside of it, because it can’t process the effects live?? it only applies them in the export?? WHAT AM I PAYING YOU FOR. really, i think the background stress of waiting for the result of an arts council grant is making me crazy. the back-background stress of how much everything costs is making it worse. I keep getting stress pains in my jaw and then walking around opening and closing my mouth in silence like a fish in an attempt to make it stop

so this week’s good youtube selections are things ive been watching recently to wipe the slate clean

starting with this vlog of a knitter travelling on a tiny tiny plane to go on a residency in fair isle – urgh, i wish i was her

i really enjoy this youtuber’s vlogs. she’s just done a chinese language school stint and unfortunately I also wish I was her

i think ultimately what i’m expressing here is a desire to vacate my body, and vacate the country, if only for a while. because here’s another person going places and knitting:

but i also just really enjoyed watching this florist arranging bouquets in silence. I was just zoning out watching her go

this forbidden playback on other websites is KILLING MY VIBE, yet more things to be frustrated about (spits on the ground)

i just went outside with a hoodie on and nothing else because the sun was making everything great, but by the time i got out the gym it was hail stoning so hard it got inside my mouth on the walk home.

when my cat is frustrated, she jumps onto the top of the shelves where I keep a scarf and some mittens, and she bites them and shakes her head like she’s killing an animal. i feel like that today/

i will return to work now. i wish i could do a short course in audio production yanno. it’s one of those things I hate asking other people about because i feel as though I should already know what to do! and i love youtube, that much is obvious, but sometimes the school of youtube is not enough.
