spewflow(state)

Stumbled into a relationship with vomit drafting that seems to work: I use Flowstate with a five minute timer, and just let things come, spewing whatever’s in my brain all over the screen (handy that FS starts deleting everything after five seconds of inactivity). Once the five minutes are up, I copy and paste what I've “written” into Obsidian, and then sift through the carnage to find words or phrases that repeat and work / build from there. While the results are more often than not little more than gibberish, I’m occasionally able to use the repeating words, phrases, and rhythms to generate the bit, the fragment that I was looking for.
