Short form is easy. Easy doesn’t translate well to art.

Music is an interesting example. Sometimes the short form (song) comes off as more inventive than the long form (album). But isn't that because an entire album of excellence is hard to do?

Conversely, the longer song isn’t always the best song.

I'm back after several long, hard (boing) weeks away. Are you back on the Switzerland improv charts with the two minute time limit experiment?

24 minutes was too long for me to finish but let me know if you need someone to start a "Wednesday Audio Clips" Youtube channel if you're going short form now since no one wants to get into a coherent whole anymore.
