Still thinking about all the gems @NifMuhammad shared last night. A presenter mentioned the abundant editing and revision comment already today. I took copious notes. Thank you again for sharing your thinking and curiosity. #NCTE23

Very much looking forward to this one — have loved Dessner music + film since Turn the River
My brother @bryce_dessner and I scored Mike Mills incredible film C'Mon C'Mon which is out next week....the score was released today...It feels like we found another sound world...full of emotion but ephemeral like a passing cloud.
