I don’t know how it happened, but recently I went through one of those weird confluences of events and experiences which somehow all coalesced around one person or thing. Like sometimes you’ll see an actor and all at once you’ll randomly see three different movies in one week starring them, even though you hadn’t planned it.

I caught a couple TV specials recently on Syd Barret and Pink Floyd, including the excellent documentary, Which One’s Pink?. Watching these different specials, along with seeing parts of The Wall again (which I hadn’t seen since college, despite having purchased a copy some years ago on DVD) was coincidental enough. But then I also saw a few Floyd music videos on different days and on different channels not too far apart from each other.. and it started to seem like I’d subconsciously immersed myself in all things Floyd.

So the tl;dr version is that I ended up with this last single from Pink Floyd’s final album The Division Bell stuck in my head for two weeks. Enjoy.
