Ode to the Obsolete

Last summer I was looking to organize all of the DVDs my family owns. While doing this I started thinking about comments I’d received from family members about how I’d never know what it was like to operate a VHS player, which was completely incorrect as one of my earliest memories is watching grease on VHS. This led to a reflection on how much we’ve come since I was young and how monumentally different from kids growing up now and how my generation might be the last generation to grow up in a world where media isn’t fully digital, and I tried to capture that in this piece.

Creativity is the way I express myself when spoken words fail me when the only way I can express myself is though metaphor on the written page.
