Finding ways to stay in motion is becoming helpful toward honing my focal endurance. I savor what I see when I may never see it again, and there's something about the impossibility of parsing each day's avalanche of visual stimuli that makes trying to do so a creatively fertile place to start work from.

The effect of here it comes and there it goes, again and again, each oscillation distinct from the last and yet sequenced.
