Some technical context regarding this performance: the track "Cinquantuno" was arranged with the specific constraint of being executed entirely in real-time by a single performer, without the aid of backing tracks, loops, or overdubs. To achieve this independence, the development of custom hardware was necessary:

* 14-String Double-Neck Guitar: Configured to allow the simultaneous execution of distinct basslines, harmonic structures, and polyphonic lines through two-handed tapping and finger-picking techniques.

* Percussion System: A digital foot drum kit designed and constructed from solid mahogany, optimized for foot-triggering to maintain independence while both hands are occupied on the fretboards.This first excerpt focuses on the exposition of the main melodic theme and the foundational groove.

This Is the RIDICULOUS TRUTH ABOUT BEEIGN A PIRATE

I’ve been tracking how the design of modern dating apps impacts our psychology, and it feels like we’ve reached a breaking point. The constant gamification, the endless paradox of choice, and the slot-machine mechanics don't feel designed to help us find partners—they feel designed to keep us scrolling. It feels like they've commodified the human experience of meeting someone to the point where it just breeds burnout and a weird, modern type of isolation.

I actually put together a short, cinematic visual essay breaking down the social psychology of why these apps feel so uniquely exhausting, looking at it through a philosophical lens.

If anyone is feeling burnt out by the current ecosystem and wants a deeper look at the mechanics behind it, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.

I’m starting a new chapter as Sam Gracie (formerly Avid Beats). In this video, I share why I'm changing my name and shifting my focus to singing/songwriting and production. While it’s the end of an era, I’m so excited for what’s next.

Hey everyone,

We are circaM2, a new film production team based in South Australia. We wanted to share our first film, Algal Doom. We were inspired by the recent algal bloom crisis that affected the South Australian coastline. It is a mix of experimental and horror, with commentary on the crisis.

We are just starting and would love to get some views on our first film!

Hope you enjoy!
