🎧 My new track Vibe Coding is out now. I made it when I felt stuck creatively — nothing I was writing felt like it meant anything. It became a metaphor not just for building software, but for how we navigate creative or emotional blocks. open.spotify.com/track/1wYN2w...

What if we stopped funding music that fits the system and started funding music that breaks it? My case for backing the unknown. open.substack.com/pub/soundoff...

Some of my fav music videos ever. Viral media has always been a thing, and these ideas are still way more interesting conceptually than most social media content open.substack.com/pub/soundoff...

I made a chrome extension! It gives you a new SCENE a day as a way to encourage people to pause and reflect while also building out the scenes world a bit. It’s my way practicing what vibe coding can help creatives and musicians with as a way of telling the story of our work

The last couple of weeks have reminded me that: Most people don’t see your posts, even when they care. Real connections often come from the “unsuccessful” content. We’re all navigating broken systems, but the people do exist. It’s the moments we almost fail that make the wins feel real.
Much love to those that came on Friday! I met so many lovely people and will share some footage soon. The day was fraught with many file export issues with the visuals and I was still exporting in the taxi!
I think this project is an interesting example of how musicians can world build and aim for deeper connections... interested to hear what people think open.substack.com/pub/soundoff...

The Commodification of Connection?
