Last week I sat down with @blackdave to talk about being a multi-hyphernate and the challanges of that in a platfromed industry that forces you in to boxes. I wrote up some of the best moments of the longform chat into a post:

Makes me emotional that the ripples of SCENES can still be felt 🫶
“Through every high and low, I am always with you.”
Below is my scene for Scene 3, “Don’t Worry”, part of one of my favorite projects ever called SCENES by @soundoffractures. At first glance, it appears as a simple image. Yet, delving deeper, it reveals itself to be much more: a connection, an expression, an emotion,

This week someone picked up one of my ENS domains. It expired a couple of weeks ago… and yeah, I didn’t notice. Normally I’m on top of these things, but this time I let it slip.
It wasn’t my main domain, but it was one that makes it very easy for the new owner to impersonate me — and the first thing they did was add m...

The idea is you collect nostalgic items like mp3 players and vinyl and try to defeat the platform bosses.
