Description
There are moments in life when melancholy grips in.
In the pursuit of achievement, when worthiness is implicitly questioned by peers and outwardly demonstrated by the actions of authority;

  • when overt praise is is actually an ambience of sarcasm; 
  • when attacks are protected by status;
  • when attempts are denied by priority;
  • when innovation is denied and a holding bay is fabricated; 
Deep rooted micro questions emerge from depths where loneliness and emptiness abide.

Degenerate logic, scratch and scrawl and scrape at sublime minds whilst

  • authority and peers prod and poke, seeking a reactive outburst 
    • demands of sorrow require victor's pity 
      • enabling those to pamper away blankets of regret. 
Placed down and continuously stripped away
Place down and taught to kneel through explicit kindness and welcoming gestures

Do not ensure that  
your repatriation  empowers  
'the authoritive' to satisfy its want to maintain balance. 


Peers will whisper controversy &
'the authoritatives' will campaign reigns against those who delve
into the depths of thought and incite difference. 

Enter the depths of loneliness and emptiness to gain strength, resilience and determined defiance.

Do not enter the depth of loneliness and emptiness to gain self pity and
offer 'the inflictor' the privilege of tendering your wounds. 


These depths are for creativity and innovation, not hospitalization.

Innovation and Creativity is not about maintaining balance.

Is Hollywood Rewriting History

  Is Hollywood Rewriting History? Reflecting on Cultural Identity This video explores the potential distortion of historical narratives through a Hollywood lens. I grapple with questions of authenticity, colonial legacy, and the importance of preserving cultural nuances in storytelling. Join me in this discussion on representation and the power of who gets to tell the story. Keywords: Hollywood cultural appropriation Filipino history storytelling authenticity colonialism in film resistance narratives Our Hollywood Heroes are on Fire We dream of parallel universes where Hollywood heroes and colonial adventurers of the 19th century coexist. These adventurers were cultural conquerors, erasing borders and reshaping narratives to fit the dominant worldview. Hollywood continues this tradition, reworking stories to fit the familiar and shaping our perceptions of reality. We must question the stories we are told, lest we become complicit in subtly reshaping history and perpetuating distorted n

Choices and Daily Rituals

  Video: Choices and Daily Rituals Story: I see them daily, following the same routine, saying the same things, and living the same day repeatedly. They take identical pictures and check their reflections on every surface. The world is vast, full of opportunities and choices, but they, like me, wear dark glasses as they go through life. I wish I could shake myself and realise the chances I'm missing, but I'm in a trance, convinced that this narrow path is all there is. Existence keeps moving on, and it pains me that I can't see past the capital waste. We could achieve so much if we didn't sit on the fence and merely comment on each other. But here I am, watching this play with the spectators, where the power to change the script is on the tip of our tongues, yet we decide not to say it. Description: Dive into the profound narrative of life in repetition, where each day mirrors the last. This exploration goes beyond the surface, questioning the comfort of routine and the
