Don’t worry too much about pleasing your own conceptions. Your audience will thank you.

A mess with wine stained lips (and something in his teeth: it’s suggested you just listen and forego looking at the disaster) sits too close to the camera and prattles about the following:
Nobody respects your time as an artist – nobody respects your time period – you don’t respect your time
Benefits of making topical YouTube videos (maybe everybody should do it)

There’s two types of creators in this instant info world – ones who are reticent due to actual professionalism and ones that do so to cultivate a sense of mystery that keeps audiences guessing
