I’ve been spiraling into the idea that "Ideas are Erotic"—that intellectual curiosity is its own form of intimacy with the world. 🕯️

My new video is a 40-minute deep dive into this "lived experience" of reading, from Rilke’s difficult "work of love" to the creative struggle of Knausgård.

The Question: If we were to sit down in a Digital Salon today, which of these concepts would you want to deconstruct first?

I’ve put the link to the full video + the announcement for the Book Club on Love in the FIRST COMMENT below! 👇

Should I read Lonesome Dove? Anybody a fan here? I’ve been eyeing it for a while 👀 I need to get lost in a novel again.
