Two interesting articles about social media and creatives.
I’m happy to announce the release of my new LP – Volume II of my Imaginary Movies series. While singles have become increasingly popular in today’s music landscape, there’s still something special about creating a cohesive collection of songs under one ‘roof’ – and this project called for exactly that approach. I’ve gathered a collection of sci-fi-inspired compositions under one unified umbrella, creating an atmospheric journey that could score scenes from an unfilmed space epic.
Building on my previous Imaginary Movies volume, this album explores new sounds and textures. Each track is designed to evoke specific cinematic moments – from quiet scenes of deep space exploration to intense interstellar encounters – all while leaving room for the listener’s imagination to craft their own visual narrative.
I recently designed a new identity for my music outlet called Tecosha. The name is an abbreviation of Textures, Colours, and Shapes.
I created a minimalistic typeface to suggest the futuristic and mystic style of the latest music written. The letters all fit within a perfect square. The shapes give it a touch of seriousness and a dramatic edge. The style is influenced by old school sci-fi movie industrial lettering seen on spaceships. The lines and intersections are inspired by the structural shapes found in Korean letters.
Turning Leaves A. The first of 4 paintings inspired by the seasonal colours, and the title of a book that I’m reading. “Moon of the Turning Leaves” by Waubgeshig Rice.

For years, I have been collecting daily snapshots of surrounding details. When we take time to chill and observe, we curiously see a visual richness that we would otherwise walk by and miss.
Now that the kids have grown up, I have a full box of crayons at my disposal. 🙂 I may be doing more colour doodling for a little while.
