finally watched the serial experiments lain anime. it was interesting, and very visually impressive, but i still prefer the psx game. though that game (specifically the final act) is definitely improved when taken w/the anime's context
i read the haunting of hill house for the first time in hopes that it would make me want to draw environments. whether or not i will actually commit to drawing more than a staircase remains to be seen, but the book was extremely good regardless so im very glad i read it.
