My Lobotomy
I caught most of this recording on NPR as I left work today. I didn’t exactly know what they were talking about until the story unfolded and I have seldom been so moved. As soon as I got home, m||3 and I discussed at length the power of the story. The premise is that someone who managed to retain their mind after receiving a lobotomy researches why he and others would receive such a procedure. One of the things that m||3 and I concluded is that this is why radio is such a still powerful tool in light of all the new technologies out there. It provides a voice, a glimpse, that other mediums may not be able to capture. I’ve been a fan of radio and the spoken word for a long time now, and the reason for why I feel it to still be a powerful medium has never been so captured by this recording. Stop everything you are doing and go right now to listen to this and try not to be moved. Direct MP3 link, Right Click to Save
