🎧 My new track Vibe Coding is out now. I made it when I felt stuck creatively — nothing I was writing felt like it meant anything. It became a metaphor not just for building software, but for how we navigate creative or emotional blocks. open.spotify.com/track/1wYN2w...

I made a chrome extension! It gives you a new SCENE a day as a way to encourage people to pause and reflect while also building out the scenes world a bit. It’s my way practicing what vibe coding can help creatives and musicians with as a way of telling the story of our work

The last couple of weeks have reminded me that: Most people don’t see your posts, even when they care. Real connections often come from the “unsuccessful” content. We’re all navigating broken systems, but the people do exist. It’s the moments we almost fail that make the wins feel real.
