Skimaskkass A relaxed 'album' that isn't ambitious (it's a collection of b-sides) but is completely beautiful for me and has a lot of replay value for me. Favorite track: fghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.

february 11th, 2020 main psychological defenses: denial, projection introjection, splitting disintegration, withdrawal fragmentation, compartmentalization intellectualization predominant negative core beliefs: i should not exist. there is something essentially wrong with me i am my mind. i think therefore i am life is threatening to my life. i will survive by deadening myself i must control my feelings & others with my mind. if i feel, i will disintegrate my rage will annihilate others & me. the world is a dangerous place characteristic illusion: i'll survive if i use my understanding to eliminate needing primary 'falling' fear: falling apart primary holding pattern: holding together primary longing: for acceptance primary struggle: the right to exist on a material plane illusion of contraction: my life is my mind, my thought, & my specialness. i can live through them illusion of release: i will be annihilated

may 7th, 2020 empty space, that's where i ... depend i stun, then i can get ahead i spill in chalice, stain me out of love i hear myself, but i ... don't even know ... so stay my friend i know you're sound, you won't change your mind you don't pay any precautions trace, you sold me, & any emotion no, you're nothing but a ... warm settled relation they, others spoke, to unspoken to a sermon, the statement. it blew us all in two don't stay in denial, first of aid no obsessions or assumptions with me i stone. alright. that must be ... a roll following the burdens of a lowly sperm oh, let's both wait, wherever you are & when i'm up & i am gone when I am covered in sweat, will i be spared sprayed with flammable liquids, & the demon things they all combine to make me ... a machine that's where i am. follow the path right out of here i'm sure i'm disgusting, i'm sure that it's somewhere in there world up in a chatlog i didn't save into a soul in my machine follow the net where it goes follow the net wave for a while

about

post-lumière: an interstitial release
will it be here forever? i don't know ...
this is a non-committal compilation of less regimented audio
nonetheless, it all clearly (to me) comes from the same time
& generally the same sorts of headspaces

an attempt at album sequencing & juxtaposition
the album, for me, tells a vague story
or a number of tiny intermingling stories ...
it's a place that i understand

-

with almost a year to reflect, here is what i have to say
now: i have a soft spot for this album. only a couple
people have expressed to me that they like it, but
it was far more than i expected, & each of them
liked it far more than i expected them to

i think it's a bit overstuffed, that it falls off around track nineteen.
it came together far more cohesively than i expected, though.
in bringing all the audio files i'd idly made over the course
of a year together into one big collage, i think i clarified
to myself the overall mindset i'd been in over the
course of that year in a way i might never
have recognized, had i not done this
