The I Ching sagely acknowledged my decision paralysis, and pointed out that I should not try to reach for any larger goals, and that it is just as good to work on smaller ones. ![]() During this break, I spent a long time considering what would be my first published work of the new year, and although I knew it would be one of the fourteen unreleased Sleepbuilding broadcasts, I consulted the ever-illuminating I Ching to help me decide. This is less of a 'vacation' and more of a decompression, a bit of much-needed asceticism and radio silence during one of the busiest and most stressful times of the year. ![]() (As usual, detailed patch notes are available in the 'track info' sections of this page.)Īt the end of each year, I have made it an annual tradition to take some leave from my work, such as it is, starting on my wedding anniversary (12/16) and not returning until sometime in early January.
