Having nothing to do may be revelatory at times. It is a good way of exploring the limitations of perception. You can find out sorts of unexpected things while trying to get yourself occupied. A little bit of this and a little bit of that and then rat-tat-tat vroom va voom. It can be frustrating at times - but then, a chance to discover something outweighs everything else. Mostly. But usually not. It just a waste of time in most cases.
Today i had a hard case of not knowing what to do. That slight feeling of helplessness and misplacement. It happens sometimes. It is fascinating and annoying in the same time. I was puzzled - i wanted to find something new and fresh but everything seemed old and stale effervescent "meh". There was an urge to hum U2's "i still haven't found what i'm looking for". That was the sound of absolute nadir of the mind.
And because that was not an option - I indulged myself to dive into wiki wormhole out of spiteful despair. Mostly because there is "random article" button - a chance to stumble upon sacred something-something. I was clicking "Random article" over and over again, going through all sorts of things - from odd french towns to lost films to eye movements to catchphrases to defunct google products. It was boring but i kept clicking - hoping that something might happen soon.
Click, click, click, click, click, click, click...
And then i stumbled upon "The Fast and The Furious" franchise page and that was it. There is all sorts of information on this page: detailed retelling of the films plots (a lot of plot, actually), storyline chronology (completely messed up), box office statistics, descriptions of merchandise and dates of live tour - nothing of particular interest. However, there was one section in the tail end of an article. It was dedicated to Soundtrack releases. That was it,
There were a lot of soundtrack releases for "Fast & Furious" franchise. For the most part - two albums per film - "original motion picture soundtrack" and "original motion picture score" - for those who can't get enough of "Fast & Furious". The list of releases was accompanied by severely abundant comments like "first soundtrack to 2009 film" or "second soundtrack for 2001 film". If you tried to read them through - it was maddening and mind-numbing but somehow morbidly fascinating because of its absolutely nonsensical composition.
The list of releases was presented in a form of a chart. It is adjustable - you can alphabetically range the bits by title, date of release and notes. Date of release and notes offer nothing - more of the same in a different order. But "title" section works magic of sorts. If you arrange the list by alphabetical alignment of titles - it blows off the "notes" section and turns it into rather off-kilter conceptual poem.
It is absolutely stupid throwaway nothing but at the very least it is unusual and unexpected. It gave me the kick and that was what i was looking for.
Here it is
