Well, you made it here. That's wonderful. It's validating to see that anyone cares enough to dig through here and find this. Now, this won't be the deepest part of the garden- far from it. But this is probably the first page genuinely somewhat distant from the entrance. This page is a museum, of sorts. A log of all those who helped forge my heart. That is dramatic, I know- but you're this deep, surely you can handle it. In more normal person words, this is a page dedicated to those who have created things I've loved, and who have inspired me to create. Many of them are from the Youtube mines (I am one of those, to my chagrin) but I'm sure you'll come across other sources here sometime. This is mostly dedicated to the people who inspire me, not the media- there's already somewhere for that.

Now, let's see who I can dig up.

DM DOKURO. What even is there to say?? Frankly, his work set the seeds for my appreciation of art and beauty in general. His old music is great, and his new music is fucking masterful. Each song of his I listen to unavoidably conjures images in my mind, and making something that can possibly live up to what he's made would, in my mind, be the greatest honor I could hope to achieve. If you've not listened to the album They Know Who They Are, it is a near must-listen. I'm dead serious, this is probably my favorite album ever. Makes me fuckin cry, man, and that's a rare, special thing. It is a rare art piece that I truly revere. TKWTA is one of them. I might at some point write a more detailed, less coherent article about him, but honestly? I don't think words do him justice. I've tried on several occasions to capture his music in images, and I've succeeded twice(images might take a bit to load), and no more. The idea that consumes most of my creative headspace is heavily influenced by dokuro, too!

anyways, that's about all for today. I'd love to get into the shit running through my head, but I'd need to make a much more detailed vent post for that, frankly. To sum it up, I'm tired of a lot of things currently going on in my life.
