Ohhhhh let’s not get into everything. People are, I think, basically here for funky electronics and “art” stuff and whatnot.
Long story short - big life hurricane. Pretty much everything. Finance stuff, employment stuff, living situation stuff, health stuff, back surgery, burnout, disillusionment, personal stuff. Big jaded about everything, most of life is in storage out of state. Mostly healed up from surgery, slowly moving forward and trying to figure out what makes sense to try and do in a world I hardly understand. Had a decent 7-8 years tenure in NYC somehow managing as a self-employed creative & technical generalist but it’s also just a bit untenable at this stage. Especially for artists. Cost of living + housing is pretty nuts atm. Definitely uh, went through the meat grinder so to speak and have come out on the other side with less of a spring in my step.
P.S. Don't let yourself end up with a massively herniated/extruded disc in your back. Not reccommended. Debilitating. And my experience with the health care system in the USA during the ordeal was a nightmare.
Some notes in no particular order~
I’ve got a huge CV up here now. Check it out. Also… Hey - hire me! Make big commission requests! Book me for gigs! I need work! :) Still stabilizing in a number of ways but with any luck I’ll be able to push forward on a number of things soon.
The visual art page has been covered in animated GIFs! Lots of viz stuff.
Check out Orbitals & The Bulleit Limitless Lounge over in Installations.
Instagram (Meta et all) and social media in general is a plague on our society and the cause of much suffering. But Instagram has also been my dumping ground portfolio thingy for ages and I’m still usually fairly active there, though I disappear from time to time. But if you want to keep up with me, that’s the place to find me.
Chiptune stuff! Check the broken alias instagram & this new live set. Some other new music on YouTube as well.
Email blast went out to the mailing list re: Sync Eater, Video Synth stuff. Feel free to inquire directly if you missed it, but the gist is that I hope to get back to some building after a few months as I may be able to re-establish a workspace which I’ve been without for sometime.
Open for consulting! I went through the meat grinder so you don’t have to! If you’re after some industry advice please do reach out. Happy to chat most of the time.
Taking less shit these days, no patience for it. Sick of every god awful exploitative system and person. Put up with a lot for a long time.
edit: I’ve gone back and forth about having published some long winded diatribe about my disillusionment and general… outlook & emotional disposition after the past 7-8 years and decided to leave it out for the time being. Hope everybody is doing okay out there. The world is a bit garbage and the only thing that makes it stink less is how we treat each other.
