A true innovator in photography. The realest one because he fundamentally distrusted photography as a medium. As a result he squeezed every bit of potential out of it to try to replicate our natural way of seeing. Distrust any artist who loves gear and lenses more than seeing.

"I can't express how hard I've been vibing to Car Culture's (@fysicaltherapy) "Low Tide" playlist for Sam Valenti's essential @HerbSundays- incredible Balearic-ish roundup of late-career deep cuts from Van Morrison, Springsteen, and Prince alongside similarly lush and gorgeous stuff I'd never heard before." - Max Read

Herb Sundays 188: Car Culture (@fysicaltherapy)
The Queens producer and DJ shares "low tide" - a soft genre study "that's hard to exactly pinpoint but you know when you hear it. (Springsteen, Smog, Townes, Sundays, Rickie Lee Jones, Prince).

This is a powerful tweet, almost too hot to touch. The thing they don't teach you in <insert any> school is how to be cold (like unpopular or flop) without losing your confidence. It's the only way to get through to the other side.

being in music is funny because it’s like you suck, you suck, you’re not good, you’re amazing, sold out, packed club, empty venue, you’re a has been, you’re a legend

On feature minimalism and MVP thinking:
“Before you play two notes, learn how to play one note... And don’t play one note unless you’ve got a reason to play it.”
