Today I learned some more interesting facts about my uncle Woody because he died last week and I've been chatting with my parents and relatives asking various questions because of the upcoming funeral. I like reflecting on people's lives when they die and I've found that writing out a personal obituary of sorts is a great process for doing so.

Today I learned that Frank Beacham passed.

Today I learned Cat Power wrote her album Moon Pix in Prosperity, South Carolina_1,2, William Eggleston had the same doctor as Elvis, and Dr. Nic from The Simpsons is based on him. While digging into Chan's most recent release of live Dylan covers, I decided to do the deep dive and learned all these in one swipe.

Today I learned that the Mean Green Mother from Outer Space from Little Shop of Horrors was Levi Stubbs_1,2 The follow up reading and holiday got me to thinking a bit more about horror as a genre.

Today I learned that Dave Cobb went to a school for students with disabilities₁. I did the deep dive on him this morning because I listened to a Broken Record podcast₂ at the request of a friend in a group thread and because I like his work. I wrote a response to my buddy who suggested it and I'm sharing it here because I think it's interesting.

Today I learned why Nick Cave went to the king's coronation₁. Nick wrote a very compelling letter in his Red Hand Files about he we went₂ so I went trolling through some press and images from the event and thought these two juxtaposed one another somewhat appropriately.

Today I learned more about Brian Eno's worldview after reading "Brian Eno Reveals the Hidden Purpose of All Art"₁.
