PARADIGMS

For so long I had a difficult time explaining what I saw in my head. visions beyond comprehension. Atleast I told myself that when I began. Through my journey, I learned to use the many available tools to express what I envisioned.

Here lies a smorgasbord of microcosms I managed to capture.

Call from the Past

I found myself in a dream of introspection. Lost in a warehouse of consumerism where I couldn't seem to find a foreseeable exit. As I weaved through aisles, I encountered acquaintances and ghosts from a distant past. When I finally found my car and began to drive away from everything, I became engulfed by deep emotions whilst navigating the dark road. Cloud formations accumulated in tangent with the soundtrack that called back to my formative years.

I awoke.

I was inspired to capture this dream in the most verbatim way possible so I got to work immediately.

This is that dream in audio/visual format.

PROJECT 2025

Call it prophecy... Call it "patriotic".

At some point you need to call a spade a spade.

There is a pattern in USA.

We lie to ourselves and close our eyes in ignorance. Oblivion.

At some point, we become the targets. By the time we decide that we care, it may be too late.

Do NOT go gentle into that night.

REFLECTION

Amidst therapy, I reflected on the ways I harbored and perpetuated toxicity. I was testing AI around this time and I jumped into creating this monologue about the monsters we hide within. I used a multitude of AI's to capture my face and to bring this scene to life.

EFFERVESCENCE

In the midst of heartache,

I collaborated with AI, a Mariachi, my brother EP1, to create this moment of catharsis. Expunging this pain onto a canvas allowed me to grow in ways I didn't feel capable of doing.

From my heart to yours, may you find paradise in this world.

Love yourself and those around you who wish to see you flourish.
