  • Thank you so much for posting this! Your father's work was a gift to all of us and this video shows the same open-heartedness passed down to you. Thanks again.

  • Thank you Ianthe for sharing such a sweet personal story. Next time I ride my motorcycle to Rainier, I'll be looking for that rock.

  • Such a beautifull thing you've given us. You've only been a photograph image to me untill now, and a name that pops in my conscience from time to time. You reveal the love for him and his work that I'd always hoped you had. Your father has been not only a cherished guide in my own development as an artist and person, but also a valuable watermellonsugar elixer of calm when I encounter my own depression. Peace to you, and thanks.

  • If I ever make a video about Richard Brautigan I hope it is as moving as this one. The typewritten words coming off the spool is a particularly fine visual. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all.

  • Sweet.
