A place to slow things down.

I’m currently creating a very fine art den.  I like to call it the Spiritual Faraday cave, where the focus is to make the output ratio much greater that the input. A place to disentangle the mind from flailing internet tentacles. To my right, there is a window facing the jungly backyard, where I can see at least 5 different flowers, an occasional rotund squirrel, and flitting hummingbirds.   

One of the main reasons why i wish to spend more time developing this site is that I believe it is increasingly important to have creative, flourishing, messy, digital spaces beyond the Algorithm World of social media. I’ve a developing theory (without any legit, supporting data) that social algorithms cultivate monoculture — same jokes, same aesthetics, vocabulary, and etc. As it is! To create a digital place that hopefully resonates and eventually actualizes into the material world... A digital place to hash out a bunch of ideas and thoughts, because I’ve a tendency to get really distracted on the internet (pretty sure that this is a common story), and the idea flies away like a little bird (ohno!).

Ultimately, I hope this site inspires people to create their indie digital zones, if this DOES inspire you, let me know and we can create a little web ring. It’ll be great. Bring back zines. In my eyes, such artifacts glimmer. The future is in the past.

okay, onwards to more art.

(music: Soundscore to ‘Grand Budapest Hotel’. Let me tell you something, try listening to that album during your commute to work, or going somewhere via bus/train. It brings forth a curious hilarity).
