A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Ghost Dog probably one of my all time favorite films that Rza does the score for. Rewatched it again last week. When Jim Jarmusch released the film in theaters he made an artistic decision not to include subtitles.

... and I love it when you talk about teaching art cause I teach art too... a lot of times I think art is when we say "Wow! What's this?" and that you give that to teens is very special.

Speaking of voting, if you live in NY and if you're voting for Biden/Harris, please do so on the *Working Families Party* line. It will count just as much as on the Dem line, and it will help save the WF Party from attack by establishment billionaire-loving creeps. (NY has a weird system and so this isn't a true "third party" per se. WFP usually endorses Democrats.)
