No-wave Neon Synths
Burst splitting
Past realpolitik
Tokyo Tolkien
Beijing Beyoncé
Franciscan Francesca
Flittering past spatial
Geometrical worlds
Draconian dragons
Dagons’ daggers
Mythos and myrrh

Art: Sin Revolution by Karen Nielsen, @karennielsen13
In the artist’s words:
Karen Nielsen is a multimedia, recording, visual, and performance artist. She began writing music as an expressive outlet for the emotional experiences of her medical training. Her creative work expanded into performance art, videos, and still art works, and focuses on the multidimensionality of humanness in its beauty and ugliness.
