"I like music."

August 4, 2015 1:29 PM

Helena Teasdale likes music. She also likes her furry white hat that looks like a bear's head. And her white wall.

Helena Teasdale is a symptom of the information age. You can watch her dance all day and all night if you want to. But you will never see her smile. What's it all about? I have no idea.

Her fame is Meh of the Web.

I liked this a lot, thanks for posting it! It's an interesting exercise in someone putting themselves out there, acting for their own enjoyment but with no particular sense of external purpose, of doing something expressive without it being a performance for anyone in particular, and learning something through sheer consistency with apparently no particular effort to treat it as a training or learning process.

I like her dancing too, but to comment on it in more detail than that would seem to be missing the point!
