I am convinced in the future we will look back and realise the sheer unimaginable folly of letting a virus that can cause immune dysregulation and cognitive dysfunction in humans infect and re-infect the global population over and over again. Worse still, that we encouraged it.

I've just been recording some violin so watch this space 👀 also look at the pretty peacock sequin embroidery behind me, made by my mum (which she started when I was a kid, then paused for years, and finally finished it more recently)! ❄️🦚

A selfie of Anni, a light-skinned feminine-presenting person with straight, brown, shoulder-length hair and dark green glasses. They are wearing a pale blue turtleneck sweater and holding a violin and bow. She is in a white room with some blue decor like doilies and ceramics. Behind her head is a embroidered picture hanging on the wall in a thick, gold-coloured frame. The wall hanging depicts two peacocks, one male and one female. The embroidery is entirely made of coloured sequins and tiny glass beads. It shines in shades of blue, green, purple, golden, bronze, silver and pink. The heads of the peacock and some autumnal orange leaves in the background are painted onto the fabric instead of embroidered.

Today's "fishing through stuff I never uploaded here"... I wrote and recorded a bit of violin for a sweet and airy dulcimer accompaniment that my tutor (Mike Worth!) made.

I swear I do game audio, I just have nothing I feel like showing at the moment 😂 here's some watercolour marker pen drawings of plants instead! P.S. this is the first time I've used these markers in years, so it felt like a big step to decide to use them...I've always been too precious about them!

Watercolour marker pen sketch of a few different plants. On the right is a purple tower of small flowers and unopened buds on a thin stem, called linaria or toadflax. In the middle is a bush of lavatera or tree mallow, with clumps of pink flowers dotted around. On the left are some thin long green leaves (imagined off the top of my head) that looks almost like seaweed.

Minimalist-style watercolour marker pen drawings of bunches of purple, blue and pink wisteria flowers. They droop in a 'string-of-pearls' way, or like a bunch of grapes.

Watercolour marker pen drawing of borage flowers, with blue petals, pointy and purple stamens, and reddish brown stems.

A little colour study I did a while ago of my favourite little guy in one of my favourite games #HollowKnight

A photo of a sketch of a scene from the game Holloe Knight, in watercolour pencil and black marker ink. Silhouettes of black vines hanging from the ceiling and blades of grass on the ground frame the scene. Behind the silhouettes is the knight, a little guy with 2 black legs, a grey cloak, and a white skull-like head with 2 horns, black hollow eye holes, as well as his sword (nail) on his back. There are colourful bushes around him in hues of purple, blue and green, as well as a waterfall cutting through the middle of the bushes.

Also have to add that doubling down on making work on climate breakdown has felt like career suicide at times. Ive even been encouraged by people to stop talking about it & had interviews pulled.

I get when visibel white folks message me to apologize for not speaking up about the genocide in Palestine earlier/at all, but that still leaves a reality in which brown folks and minorities took all the flak for years of doing the right thing.

Descent into a rabbit hole in four pictures

Screenshot of my instagram story with Hollow Knight GIFs and stickers decorating the screen with different vegetation illustrations. The text reads: "I don't know what's happening to me, I haven't really felt a burning desire to draw anything for a long time (as someone who used to draw all day long, once upon a time). But since today my brain is like, "I need to draw studies of the environmental design of my favourite hollow knight areas as research to create my own environmental art for any music I make that fits those kinds of vibes."

Photo of my computer screen showing my graphics tablet sensitivity settings. In the square where you can test the pen pressure, I doodled Hornet from Hollow Knight.

Another photo of my computer screen displaying my graphics tablet sensitivity settings. In the square where you can test the pen pressure, I doodled the knight instead, from the same game.

A quick digital painting of one of the gigantic flowers that serves as background art in certain locations within the world of Hollow Knight. The line art is wispy and flowy, with are about nine pointy, leafy-looking petals in a rosette arrangement. The stamens protrude from the middle with long stems and big, white stamens that look like glass orbs. The petals are painted turquoise with a gouache brush, with highlights and shadows contouring the shape of the petals.

There is so much evidence in favour of this, and simultaneously, too many AAA games have just gotten sloppy in favour of making a quick return for investors ... everyone in the industry is aware of this by now, right? This doesn't have to be a controversial take anymore right?
