With my mind numb from about three hours of digesting Netflix shows, I sit down in front of my computer today and as I am filled with part-ennui, excitement, uncertainty, tiredness, and ambivalence, I look to 2021 and reflect back upon this past year.

There’s no clock, no time, and no pressure. It’s just you, the film, and the developer. Nobody is there forcing you or pressuring you to do or expose anything you don’t want to. You decide...you call the shots, you make the rules. You expose what you want, how you want.
