Importantly, as a reminder to self, expecting hypes in the process of building, as in building to a climax or simply showing off my techniques, will inevitably lead to disappointments because humans don’t tend to react to gradual changes. And I should be intentional about this, which means I should have moments where I execute in a way that deliberately has the crowd be quiet and just watch.
