catching the big fish
I read David Lynch’s book on meditation, consciousness and creativity the other day. It is very short and well worth a look, for anyone interested in Lynch’s work, and creativity in general. As a warning, though, it may well convince you to start meditating.
The creative process Lynch describes is more like my own than any other artist I am aware of. Usually I look at people in terror when they describe how their processes work. Reading it strongly strongly reminds me how central meditation, tai chi and whatnot have been to the routines that work for me when I am being creative and productive.
Oh: and he has no idea what was up with the box and the key from Mulholland Drive

That really is the wonder of Lynch, isn’t it? Just allow his work to seep in, and create your own stories from it…

I read somewhere that the scene where she opens the box and disappears was the last shot of the pilot, when Mulholland Dr. was going to be a tv series.
