Just watch this, okay? You won't regret it...

This is an absolutely gorgeous short film that manages to be heart-breaking, beautiful, and about the wonders of technology all at the same time.

But just watch:

I am off soon...

...but in the meantime, I would like to share this remarkable artist with you. Perhaps you haven't heard of Joanna Newsom, I certainly hadn't until very recently (like...accidentally...while stumbling through Wikipedia...). But I am ridiculously fond of her and her voice and her harp-playing.

The longer I spend listening to folk music, the more I find I love folk music.

I can't say a lot about her voice, the gravelly notes to it, the high ululations of it, the slow counterpoint she presents to her harp, how it sounds as if someone said, "we need a Human voice," and gave it to her. I am in love.

She speaks for herself, however. And the imagery in her lyrics is unreal.

...that is all...
