I'd say.. embrace digital. But, really, in my case, maybe not anyone else's, I use EVERYTHING.. vhs, broken dvd glitches.. old camcorders, film strips, notebook drawings, mspaint, polaroids.. anything works.I even designed my own video game for a sequence in no reason to exist..

for me I enjoy the analogue process far more than the digital. I find it cathartic and ritual. processing a film by hand or running through negs brings me more joy than uploading and point and click. I agree though, whatever works for each individual.
