So proud of @kaleydaefilm for creating this beautiful short film, a glimpse into the world of Cellular Transformation. Many of you who know me personally have almost certainly heard me talk about these retreats that we participate in every year. It’s a huge part of our life and it’s always been difficult to describe the magic that happens in these spaces with @jennifermillarlove
Last year I was Kaley’s assistant in filming many of these interviews, sometimes on camera, mostly on audio, and I got to make an original music composition for this film. It’s been so fun watching it come to life.
This work is profound and life-changing, and the care and love that @jennifermillarlove and the growing CT team put into it is hard to put into words. It feels impossible to imagine my life without it - or the incredible people I’ve met along the way who have become my closest friends from all over the world.
I hope you can take some time to watch the full 16-min film on @jennifermillarlove website, link in her bio and also at cellulartransformation.org 🤍
It’s been a while, but I got to put my director hat back on and make a little documentary about Colossal Biosciences bringing back the dire wolf. View the full 12 min film on @itiscolossal YouTube.
Thank you @benlamm and @chris_klee for the opportunity. You guys are doing incredible work and I’m grateful to be a part of it.
And a massive thank you to the superstar team that helped me bring it to life:
Kaley Hanson - Editor
Will Patterson - Composer / Sound Designer
Lyon Graulty - Motion Designer
Nathan Walker - Visual Artist
Arthur Garibay II - Colorist
Interviews and lab footage shot by Chafic Saad and Kris Saad of Kind Motion Pictures.

Well today is my birthday 🎂 so I thought it would be fitting to provide a life update and some recent moments! Six weeks ago my partner @kaleydaefilm and I and our kitty Cosmo packed up our life after living in London 🇬🇧 for three years and moved to the Netherlands 🇳🇱
We’re living just outside of Amsterdam and while it was a crazy ride making it here, we are so grateful and excited for this next chapter. We already had many beautiful friends here which was part of why we chose to move here.
So grateful for our friends who have graciously welcomed us and to the new ones we’re already making. So grateful to my partner Kaley for being just as excited as I am to travel and explore the world 🌍
Thank you Universe 🤍 I couldn’t ask for a more beautiful life. Endless gratitude. For my birthday I want you to hug your friends and tell them you love them. And again and again and again 🙏🏻
Much love to you all 🤍 please come visit! 🤩
Dear friends,
With great excitement (and a bit of sadness), I am moving to London at the end of August to start grad school. I will be completing an MSc in Creative Computing at University of the Arts London. I would love to see you before I make my journey across the pond.
Please come join me for a weekend of goodbyes, good music, and good friends. Bring your wallets and buy some of my things to help me pay for school! I've been in Austin for 10 years and I have a LOT of stuff I am letting go. Musical instruments and equipment, records, books, clothing, tools, furniture - all sorts of things.
August 21 + 22, 12-8p
9025 Vigen Cir. Austin, TX 78748
This will be a TWO day event - Saturday and Sunday from 12-8p. Come and go as you please. We will have a sound system set up with myself and friends spinning tunes all day. Will provide soda waters but BYOB if you like. Let's boogie one last time for now 😊.
🤍

I am very excited to announce my latest installation will be premiering at The Hive @beecavearts as a part of the @beecavebuzzfest this weekend!
Waves of Harmony is an audiovisual instrument that explores the use of cymatics, a subset of modal vibrational phenomena. Using specific frequencies to vibrate a small vessel of water, mandala-like patterns form on the surface of the water. Wave your hand over the seven different notes to explore these patterns. When combined with the human voice, these audiovisual patterns induce an ethereal, hypnotic, and meditative experience.
A big thank you to @dadageek for the support of this festival and a super extra special thank you and shout out to my collaborators on this project @reyonman@sarahmariemusic_@taeshadae@blakemanns . This would not have happened without you!
I hope to see you all this weekend! 🤍🌟🤍

Very excited to announce I have had the opportunity alongside @sarahmade.co and @solomonpetchenik to create the graphics package for this new 4-part docuseries premiering on HBO this Sunday at 9p CST.
A big congratulations to my friend and director @madisonhamburg . Your drive, determination, and raw vulnerability in capturing and sharing your story is deeply inspiring.
Can’t wait for the world to see what we’ve been working on!

Our reality has changed, and so have we.
Realizing what we lost had kept us free,
Looking ahead at what the world could be.
We spent the summertime hibernating in our dreams,
Connecting with our flock over digital streams,
Pondering a new world together as a team
Take flight,
into the night,
with connection & intention in sight.
Path set for the light,
We unite.
Reimagine Reconnection at Art Island: New World, Oct 9+10
A safe, limited-ticket event
Artist announcement coming next week

One year ago this week I packed up a truck load worth of gear and shipped it out to the middle of the desert to share my art with one of the most incredible, beautiful, and crazy community of humans I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. It was by far one of the most challenging and rewarding trips I have ever taken.
I spent months designing and building a dust-proof projector box and all the gear that goes with setting up my installation TRIP to survive the fierce environment of the playa. I learned how to build a geodesic dome, how to craft and build custom hexayurts, and how to survive for 8 days in the desert and leave no trace. It was an incredible period of growth, perseverance, and grit.
I got to perform as a drummer in the Great Circle with an amazing team of fire performers that took me in and gave me an experience of a lifetime.
I got to spontaneously share my music with new friends from all over the world and guest DJ at multiple camps throughout the week.
I got to explore and ride my bike through a pop-up city in the desert and drink kombucha, eat vegan ice cream, get a massage, take a tantra class and shower naked with 100+ people in a giant soapy foam dome dance party. I laugh out loud as I write this - how cool is that? What an opportunity to step into some fear and vulnerability.
The magic of Burning Man is an indescribable experience - something you have to see to believe. The amount of effort, commitment, and hard work that this community puts into making incredible, jaw-dropping, and magical large-scale art to share with the world is beyond words. It is a truly and deeply inspiring experience.
I am sad that Burning Man isn’t happening in-person this year as I know how much this gathering means to so many people. But there IS a digital experience going on right now and our @artislandatx team is participating! We will be doing a livestream event on Saturday and I will be DJing alongside @t.izane and @gold.chisme , and featuring lots of amazing art from our Austin community and beyond.
I look forward to the next time I find myself in the magical dust of Black Rock City 💗 )'( 💗

Picking out albums from my dad’s music collection was one of my favorite parts of road trips and camping trips growing up. Fond memories of rifling down the highway in his ‘86 pickup with the windows down and blasting Judas Priest (although I think these were all cassette tapes in the mid 90’s). Here are our picks for the boat this weekend.
