This is Water - David Foster Wallace

in #video • 5 years ago

I serendipitously shot this in slow motion last year at Two Steps beach, Hawaii. I think it blends really well with David Foster Wallace‘s 2005 commencement speech at Kenyon College. I only used clips of it here but I highly, highly recommend that you check out the whole speech and transcript attached in the link below. I wish I had come across it during my angsty adolescent years.
