This beautifully harrowing album from experimental ambient trio from Gothenburg has easily made it onto one of my favorite albums list of the past couple years. First time I listened to the track “Stanna Hos Mig” I felt like I was listening back at a fuzzy and distorted memory. The delay on the strings and the vocals are ghostly and sublime; creating a sort of distance from the listener. This album shapeshifts and folds into whatever domineering headspace you’re in at the time. I would love to sample their work sometime. This is the kind of music I wish I was making.

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie
plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

I recently watched The Monkey for free at Chicago's Music Box Theatre — and even stuck around for Perkin's Q&A session. I have to say, it was the best movie-going experience I've ever had. An organist played the score with diabolical cymbals in the background — come on! And the movie was hilarious and equal parts gory!

Staying at the Roxy in NY (formerly the Tribeca Grand) is akin to being on an elegant cruise in Manhattan. It’s my home away from home in the city. Everything is there: from live jazz in the massive atrium lobby with the glass elevator zipping up and down and the divine food and drinks (I recommend the lobster roll and a mescal cocktail) in recessed leather booths shaped like teacups, to the gorgeous red velvet theater below - which offers the best films on screen in Manhattan - curated by the brilliant Illyse Singer. After attending a killer film and fascinating Q&A, retreat to the Django, the speakeasy next door, which stays open til 4AM and is often where the hottest underground music acts play… What else could you ask for?

I’ve recently been watching Rule of Rose (remake) on youtube. It’s a masterfully twisted game and beautifully done. Something about watching gameplays has always soothed me. I would always fall asleep to Silent Hill 2 gameplays during the pandemic. You just have to turn down the boss fights when you’re finally trying to sleep; it can get a little abrasive. Stay away from gameplays with commentary please. You don’t need a random white guy's opinion on the creature design right now- just too goddamn annoying

This was my life in middle school. I would spend hours on the computer after school building sets, creating characters and writing scripts. It doesn’t hold up as well because I don’t want to torment my computer with all the custom content downloads… and now I’m jaded from making movies with real people (lol) I made a zombie series called Propagation on Sims. I made an epic short about teenage pregnancy to a Sigur Ros song. I made one about a teacher student affair to the song Nude by Radiohead. I was full of so much confusion and emotions… making movies on Sims 2 was my release. Check out Lodelday on youtube. She was my inspiration. Her movies informed my taste in a way. Long live Sims 2. Forever love. Here is Frances Nowak; a character I made for a failed short about a widowed woman finding her life again to the Umbrellas of Cherbourg theme song. The dramaaaa.

The perfect amount of weed. By the time the edible hits you’ve forgotten you’ve taken and it comes like a delicate brush of wind on a spring day; always a pleasant surprise. Be wary of the subtle ego death if you’ve had an off day. Take with caution.
