Harold Budd's Luxa (2/30)
[media=https://youtu.be/wD7l5wod1-M]
In my last read/listen I completed for the 3rd or so time Charmides, they're trying to get to an ideal definition of sophrosyne, which is hard to translate into English, in this translation they went with temperance, which was very important for the Stoics. In this hour i'll be inching my way closer to the finish line of Aristotle's De Interpretatione for something like the 2nd time. These 2 thinkers Plato and Aristotle are the fellas I need to be spending the most time with more with the latter than the former as there exists more of his stuff than the former, however to make it a little more even I aim to be reading the 2 "complete" anthologies for Plato along with some other translations from Oxford, Penguin and other purveyors of fine writings. Plato was a better writer, but Aristotle wrote more in a way that you can at least figure out what he thought about stuff.
My bro might be calling before this hour is up, so expect me to be detained a little longer than an hour since this gets posted, plus i'll be needing to refresh my coffee etc.
Harold Budd is someone fans of Eno's ambient work need to know about, and surely they collaborated for a few albums so a true Enophile would already know of him, but if you're like me you need more Budd time. This Budd's for you!!
