Practice Notes: Same & Different

Turner Yellow Fever

Change is a strange thing. While worldly phenomena—including human bodies and minds—seem to be in perpetual motion—transforming, modulating, modifying, adjusting, etc. pretty much all the time—change turns out to be rather slippery to actually find. The reason for this slipperiness is that to say that a particular object has “undergone change” requires that it partake, simultaneously, of …

Guan Yin moon and lotuses

Dream Several times over the past several months I’ve had this recurring dream …. I’m an actor—and have agreed to play a particular role in a theatrical play. But on opening night, for one of a variety of reasons, I’m unable to fulfill this commitment. In some iterations of the dream, I’ve learned my lines, but then—in a moment of stage-fright—forget them.

F1 racing car

I’ve never watched an entire Formula-1 race—just some highlights, every now and again. But the process—with all its high-speed precision, intricacy, and interrelated parts—fascinates me. To win an F1 race requires simultaneously high levels of performance from the car (with its multitude of parts and systems), the driver, the race engineer(s), and the pitstop crew—all responding skillfully to …
