Miranda July

after rambling around the week, obsessively looking for a chance to come across the new enchanment in the world of art but sadly i haven't find one. my life has been nothing but switching up the place apartment and campus on and on recently. i wish to have this circle broken before i wither away. i went out some night, met new friends, woke up next morning and met up with old folks. but life won't give up pulling me down...i am recovering from the aftermath. 

so this time i give myself a chance to write something i "adore" so that my wordiness can flow in a bit. and it's about Miranda July, my all-time most favorite person ever. eventhough she currently doesn't have her work come out globally, i refuse to focus on her masterpiece "me and you and everyone we know" i don't want to be the last person on earth to do that. Miranda July should rather be labeled an artist than director or flimstar because she has done everything, writing short stories, playing in a band or even selling pillowcase or sun blind. basically she is a kind of person i perpetually wish to have more in my daily life. though i'm feeling so far away for a big fan, i can't go to her show or meet the real person. all i can do is getting inspired by her film and book "no one belong here more than you" (almost entirely by sexual frankness comedy) and other thing accessible from her. despite the fact the she is not a prolific story maker, there are plenty of her works scattered over youtube which are friendly to my inaccessiblity.

HOW TO MAKE A BUTTON



who wants to know about how buttons are made, but when it comes to Miranda July there must be something. anyway don't try this at home!

"TOP RANKING" BY BLONDE REDHEAD



the most inexpensive stop-motion i have ever seen, not directed by her but very Miranda-ish

ARE YOU THE FAVORITE PERSON OF ANYBODY?



a man randomly ask people down the street "are you the favorite person of sombody" if you don't take this profoundly you may find this idiotic. it's a question of self-esteem. so are you anybody's favorite person?
