You say it's great that younger guys don't care about what you've written. I would argue it's the main reason we have a hard time going from scene to milieu! People prefer a few videos and then feel they know enough. I, for one, have only really gotten going with your work, and it's just the beginning!

This is very true, thanks for pushing back on this a bit. I struggle with it immensely, this comment may even motivate another article. And I deeply appreciate the openness and willingness to engage with my work, of course. Having a collaborator that engages my work means more than anything. Looking forward to the future!
