Happy Valentine's Day, especially to anyone who might identify with one of the letters in LGBTQ, particularly the day after someone Trumpy stripped the letter T and then the letter Q from the National Park Service website for Stonewall in New York City.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The quotation of Hermann's Vertigo score in The Substance genuinely kept me up thinking last night. What an unexpected reference to the male gaze throughout cinematic history. Would love to chat about its symbolism with fellow audio nerds (if anyone else cares 😂)

Into The Thicket is out now! I am so proud of scoring this film and our festivals, including an Oscar-qualifying festival, 5 award noms, and win for “Best Fantasy Short". A dark-leaved exploration of magic and self; “a film woven with beautiful intricate grief ribbons." vimeo.com/63561506?sha...

To everyone observing their Spotify wrapped: If you want to pay the artists who made your year's soundtrack, you can use Hype Machine's MERCH TABLE tool to convert your playlist to Bandcamp links for purchase. Streaming music isn't sustainable for small artists, you can help! hypem.com/merch-table

Honest post. Yesterday I worked about 16 hours. The only breaks were for basic household tasks/some quick food. I got out of pyjamas to do a workout. Then I got back into PJ's and carried on working. And yesterday was meant to be a day off.
