Fantastic read on Substack from Ted Gioia.
"Culture started out on scrolls. And now it has returned to scrolling (and swiping) as the dominant forms of transmission. But, of course, those two types of scrolling could hardly be more different."

Who doesn't like a Lester Young story?
Ted Gioia on Lester Youngs Christmas Comeback in 1956.
"By any measure, he was the least macho tenor sax star in the history of jazz."
Yes!
"No matter what your norm was, Lester Young typically operated two standard deviations outside of it. That was his milieu."
... and it's so good that he operated outside the norm.
