june 25, 2014: a wide-eyed, existentially bankrupt CxDr leaves their quaint Australian home behind and embarks on a 2.5-month journey across North America, visiting many friends, seeing many wonderful sights, and learning many valuable life lessons. this is a collection of tunes made during my time there, inspired by the people and places of that strange country, and each with its own accompanying video clip of my camcorder footage.
