I guess there is never a perfect time to start something, no matter how much we plan for it and deeply wish to hit the flow state to create something really good. Something so good, I can't seem to have the agallas to share it. At least that is what I tell myself. Also, in all honesty, I feel sort of insensitive about sharing videos of myself in full fantasy dancing to Rawayana. But again, that might be my brain trying to stop me.

My brain has been processing chaos since an early age. See, I come from a place where there was no rule of law. However, no matter how bad things were, comedy and TV were there for me. I am one of those who grew glued to the screen every Monday evening to watch my favorite sketch show and laugh collectively as a family. I do cherish those days.

I always thought about how incredible it was that a group of people got together, built sets, memorized scripts, and were so eager about making a really fun program to entertain others. That was their job. The coolest job in the universe. One day, that was just gone. No joy for anyone across the land, and the signal was turned off by the evil spirits of greed and collective control. I was too young to understand that at the beginning, but as I grew older, I could start to recognize it.

Certainly, things have changed since then, except for the chaos. Chaos is constant, no matter which part of the multiverse you are located in. I have begun to understand that chaos benefits some of those who only want control, even at the cost of people's peace and well-being, forcing them to relocate to other places that they only hope are safer. Unless you live under a rock or have enough coins to build a shelter away from everything, that is how this world is out there. We went from navigating countries to now wishing we could find some land on some other planet away from the pain, worry, uncertainty, and chaos.

While I romanticize making TV back then, the very people who were making that type of content had to reinvent themselves and use social media platforms and streaming to continue offering what they do best, whether entertaining or informing other people. Unlike back when I was young, we have tools at our disposal to broadcast that maybe were even unthinkable back then, or at least as accessible or adopted as they have become.

Don't get it twisted! I am not as old as I sound, and I still have a lot of curiosity and exploration ahead of me. This publication is part of that. If you have never come across my paintings, writings, videos, songs, or whatever artistic endeavors I decide to explore online, welcome. If you have, weeeeelp– you know EXACTLY what you are getting into saltïnes. Over the last few years, I have been allowing myself to explore my interests in parallel to pursuing a career in communications and tech, industries that, in some way or another, broke my heart but helped me get to where I am today. I ain't got much, but I do have experiences and perspectives that I can share.

Maybe it is time, now that I have achieved my childhood dream of becoming a communicator, maybe it is time that I give myself the same treatment. While I still dream of making great entertainment in my native land, I think that we can use these social and broadcasting tools (particularly if they are decentralized and open-source) to connect and build a world that brings us closer together to have fun, create magic, and entertain even more people.

My goal is not only to share stories and music, but to dig deeper into topics and have conversations with those who built and lived through that golden era that I so much respect and miss from my homeland. I hope to connect and learn from their experience as we build better broadcasting tools and informative content in the future.

I promised myself I won't extend my writings unless they are insightful and helpful, but I expect this to be my playground and documentation for it all. I look forward to sharing more about the projects I have been working on, what I have been playing with, and what I have been learning from other people. You can sign up for free for the publication or support the creation of more content.

In times when there is so much noise, wild feeds, I am confident we will be seeking smaller online spaces that are dedicated to topics and interests alike. I hope you find that here, whether you enjoy fun content or want to learn more about producing and creating content, technology, music, creativity, and whatever I find interesting.

Like always, stay safe online, touch grass, talk to at least two humans, and let's keep building a better multiverse together.
