Putting a face to the abstracted radio voice is as jarring as it is fulfilling. I am sure for many of the 99pi listeners Avery’s voice has been the sound of a good chunk of their lives. What a brilliant and impactful young person!
Beginning with everything about the # & now the part about the stairwell & the useless railing reminds me of Wilde’s preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray “All art is at once surface and symbol…We can forgive a man for making a useful thing as long as he does not admire it. The only excuse for making a useless thing is that one admires it intensely. All art is quite useless.” It’s interesting to listen to this after many listens of the two seasons of Nice Try! & Articles of Interest which just wrapped its 4th evergreen season #ToManyMore & to have it confirmed that yes like any recording there’s a bit of refinement through editing + years more of public speaking, but really it’s just 99% Avery Trufelman’s mellifluously nerdy wit! I’ll have to go check out Hyperart: Thomasson by Akasegawa
