Systems of Love

What a year. Lost my dad. Lost my childhood possessions. Someone stole my brother’s video game collection which also had systems and games I bought when I played religiously starting at the age of 4. I’m detached from these things; it’s the disrespect that stands out. It also made me reflect on my parents spending so much money on those things to make us happy while we fought to survive. It was our vacation. Systems of love. The love can’t be stolen. So I let go of those things and cherish what remains.

Face Puller

The past two years I’ve been quietly getting back into acting. I didn’t plan on it, it just happened organically. My life has been the best acting school and acting teacher. If you dare to be great, be open to adversity. There are no limits when you finally let go. Surrender and flow are important aspects of creativity.

Bright Shadow (LP) is a sonic exploration of the tension between utopia and dystopia and poses the question, “What world do we want to build together?” (Video shot and edited by Dominic Polubinski)

Thanks Chris Couto for the added drums and percussion. And Alex Penney for mixing at Monarch Studios.

Based on KOFI and Ben Helten’s original music for Rachel Helten’s interdisciplinary work, “Bright Shadow.”
