Just finished "The Longing For Less: Living with Minimalism" by one of my favorite writers @chaykak ( https://amzn.to/2yZ4PW1 ). Sharp and eloquent analysis as always. Very helpful in understanding minimalism as more than just "buy less, but better" and subdued color palettes.

Would've hugely benefited from being in a more interactive medium than a static book though. So many of its topics like Donald Judd, Brian Eno, and Philip Glaser would’ve hit much harder paired with visuals or audio.

Regardless, if you’re a fan of his writing (such as his famous AirSpace article: https://www.theverge.com/2016/8/3/12325104/airbnb-aesthetic-global-minimalism-startup-gentrification) or have ever felt the need to simplify your life in our increasingly cacophonous world, worth a read.

As a side note, I've done about half of what’s mentioned in the book, like the sensory deprivation tank and getting my mind blown by the Ryōan-ji rock garden when I lived in Kyoto for a month. Looking forward to completing the rest of minimalism bingo once SIP ends.
