New Thing Today, the series where I feature new cool things I’ve discovered. It could be a website, a game, a show, a music video, anything that sparks my interest. It’s so rare that I deep-dive into something that truly fascinates me without being distracted. To follow the trail from impressions left here and there to something worthwhile.
As with many of my personal writings, I like to frame it with a tentative systematic approach — and as with many of my good pieces, I like to abandon all plans as I get engrossed in it. The steps are as follows: 1) a quick introduction to the main thing; 2) a feature piece — it could be my favourite article from a site, my favourite still from a music video, or something I’d like to explore later on; 3) anything this new thing reminds me of, in other words, to make connections.
