Ted is a deep thinker and diversified genius, like you. Did you get all the way through his entire book, Music to Raise the Dead, which he published chapter by chapter, from August 2022 to the final chapter this January 2025? We know he writes well and he figured out a way to help us read an entire book through installments on Substack.

A strong and insightful look at communication norms and practices—dearly departed, presently in transition, and with exciting (and terrifying) futures. Looking forward to the results of your call for submittals. This is (quite serious) fun.
