January 6ths (We Can Work It Out)

1/6/1966   
     
Yet more overdubbing onto the tape of “Penny Lane”...none of the instruments was taped pure...recorded at 47-1/2 cycles to speed up on replay.

[1/6/2021: What a difference 55 years makes...from bouncy Beatles pop to the potential end of democracy in the US. Apparently, "We Can Work It Out" by The Beatles was the number 1 song in the US. This would make for an ironic video treatment. I’d detune the track by a half-step].

“I’ve never kept a diary past about 6 January (so I know a lot about the early Januaries of my life).”

Out to see film, Unbreakable. What you want to show is the integration of the opposites (Jung), not learn at the end of the movie that one became criminally insane and one became a hero (not unless this is the way it happens in comic books).

1/6/2025: It’s interesting that I didn’t make an entry for Jan6. I think I was just either too busy or too stunned].

(Anthony Townes Diary)

I still feel as if I’m in a dream.

Read article from Dr. Stone about how past traumas, even though they can fade over time, never lose their power. There’s always a bridge there, even if closed off temporarily.

He’s trying to sell me on the idea of “Strategic Erasure”, where certain memories can be tactically targeted, rather than strategically targeted.

Poe: What is strategic erasure?
