David Lynch's Eraserhead. It's a pretty rough movie to
watch in that it's just really challenging and
uncomfortable. One of the premises is the protagonist lives
in a space where it is always there's always industrial
noise around them. They can't get a break from it and like
here even in the forest.

▶ Speaking
In Veteran Acres, we're surrounded by traffic, houses being
built, construction, different aspects, the train, ambul
ances. Like right now I can hear the, must be a bulldozer or
something like that. You can hear it moving and I'm pretty far out in the woods
and this is one of the predicaments I think we have in the
modern world is you can't get any peace even out in the
forest. Everything bleeds in.
