This image features a futuristic, digital depiction of a Black individual, blending human and cybernetic elements. The person has dark skin and short, textured hair, with a high-tech headset or visor wrapped around their head. The headset has glowing, glitch-like details in neon pink, orange, and blue, creating a vibrant, surreal contrast against the person’s skin. Chains extend vertically around the figure, giving the image a sense of confinement or technological entrapment. The background is composed of vivid, distorted colors, with glitch effects in shades of pink and orange, adding to the sci-fi, dystopian atmosphere.

Own Your Masters, and the Algorithms

A thoughtful reflection on how technology is reshaping the boundaries of creativity, performance, and ownership

This image features a surreal and nostalgic blend of nature and technology. In the foreground, a young Black boy is sitting on the ground, gazing at an oversized, vintage computer monitor placed directly in front of him. The computer, reminiscent of a 1990s or early 2000s model, stands out as a digital relic in an otherwise organic, rural landscape. The monitor's screen is a bright blue, possibly symbolizing a blank canvas or untapped potential. The setting is a vibrant, colorful field with hues of orange, yellow, and purple blending into the plants, evoking a dreamlike or pop-art aesthetic. In the background, a city skyline rises in the distance, representing a stark contrast between the rural foreground and urban progress. The clouds in the sky are large and cotton-like, contributing to the surreal and imaginative atmosphere of the scene. The image seems to symbolize the intersection of childhood, technology, and growth—perhaps reflecting on the artist's personal journey from rural roots to technological discovery. It combines themes of nostalgia, innovation, and the pursuit of knowledge in an almost futuristic yet vintage-inspired style.

Nobody Built Like You, You Design Yourself

It started with a Pentium desktop and Hip-Hop beats, and it became a blueprint for designing my future.

Chronicling the tools and rules that facilitated the rollout of AUSAR’s debut album

When I'm not writing songs (mostly dreamy, avant-R&B), I’m building BlendStack to ensure gradient-rich and glassmorphic products get WCAG 2.2 clarity, all while working with Chicago rapper AUSAR.

I’m currently listening to What Did I Miss by Drake, Drapetomania by Chance The Rapper (featuring BabyChiefDoIt), and Darling, I by Tyler the Creator. Listen along and let me know what you think—or just reach out to say what’s up.
