It's finally complete! Days of sickness slowed me down, but I'm happy to finally be able to share thoreau with you. An article version will follow on Monday.
I hope you enjoy it. It's been challenging on just about every level to make, and while I wish I could go back and implement all the lessons it taught me, I'm proud of the finished product. I hope it was worth the wait.
We live in an age of distraction. Despite being surrounded by beauty, I've continued to find the temptation of digital gravity difficult to resist. And so I paid a spiritual visit to Henry David Thoreau to see what he could offer me and my hot-and-cold relationship with modern life.
