the background music plus the "thud" gave me literal chills, i felt very squeamish #hwa3 #storyaboutastory

When in the memoir the woman describes how she was shocked when the doctor said she'd never walk again. The way she conveyed it through her speech made it sound ridiculous all the while something as grave as that is quite the opposite. The sound made me agree with her #hwa3 #sonicmeaning

wait the 3 different types of listening are actually super cool. #hwa3

adults don't know what they are talking about #word #hwa3 #storyaboutastory

I don't really see it as a homage but I simply just think he saw the potential and knew what kind of personal spin he could put on it to suit his style of music #hwa3 #sampling

“Acted like I totally knew where I was going on my first day of college” meanwhile I was checking the map every 2 seconds and hoping nobody noticed... #hwa3 #tinymemoir

As you tell a story you hone in on the parts that you like and the parts you want to remember and the other aspects become useless. It's less efficient to describe all the things that are happening at the time #hwa3 #forgettingandtelling

its so interesting to see the development of the gold digger sampling and im surprised I didn't notice it sooner #hwa3

When talking about history and how it is changed and rewritten through art. A big thing that came to mind is how history is written by victors, so many perspectives are hidden. The fact that art can possibly combat that really provided a new perspective #hwa3 #thinkingdifferently

sometimes i swear i remember something one way and then someone else tells me thats not even how it happened 😭 it makes me wonder how much of my memories are actual events and how much are just feelings i attached to them later. #hwa3 #imaginedintoreality

Wait, so true, I've never thought of memory that way, actually, but the more I think about it, the more accurate it feels to compare it to a muscle. #hwa3

I think Anderson says she kept forgetting parts of the story as she told it, to emphasize how unreliable our memory is. Also, it is always changing, even based on who you are speaking to in the moment. #hwa3 #forgettingandtelling

Wow definitely like a twilight zone episode with how the tone just shifted to how she forgets all the other things about the hospital that were pushed back because she didn't want to relive them #hwa3 #storyaboutastory

A genre I would jailbreak is reality tv because its supposed to feel “real” but theres still editing, producers and cameras affecting everything. I wanna see what happens when people forget theyre even being filmed because thats probably when the actual reality shows up. #hwa3 #jailbreakinggenre

My feed makes me look like I only care about food, random funny videos and places I wanna go 😭 but honestly thats kinda accurate because those are the things I always stop scrolling for. #hwa3 #feedreflection

I will not do well on my math exam. This is false and truly performance based because it is up to me to decide how I will be preparing for it and how I will end up doing #hwa3 #tinymemoir

It felt real to me when I was learning how to drive because at first I was just copying what my parents told me to do, but after practicing enough it started feeling natural and like I actually knew what I was doing. #hwa3 #itfeltrealbecause

#hwa3 #thinkingdifferently I think this video, but particularly listening to Laurie Anderson, really effected how I reflect on memory. Her final quote about how every time we think we are rehashing the same story, something is changing, was really interesting to grapple with

One thing I have imagined into being "real" would be how I perceive myself and how I think people perceive me, and HWA3 has helped me understand that it is simply that reality is my personal experience and perception #hwa3 #imagineintoreality

The way she describes her dive originally makes it seem so mystical and wonderful as she emphasizes certain words. The introspective thinking and wording after she describes it shows perfectly how she didn't understand the consequences before doing the action #hwa3 #storyaboutastory
