Petri Dish World

Listen close, you can hear the hustle and bustle of cells clamouring for the attention of each other. To grab onto similar recognisable life, to bring it near, this is how we make sense of our existence. It is dangerous to compare, but it is at the root of what we know of and how we know ourselves.

All it takes is one moment where the direction we were heading is diverted, even slightly, and it can take you to some places you may never have wanted to tread. However, be open to it, don't fear it, because often these are the times you learn most about what the world can be like at its worst, at its most distorted, and its weirdest and most interesting; and when you survive it, you get further insight of what you are capable of.
Do not worry if you feel the need to ask for help in these times. There will always be someone around who understands, since we all face dark, difficult moments or eras, those pain-obscured futures, or things that just simply don't add up. There is always someone who has done the maths and figured out solutions, some of which may be relevant and guide you through. Just ask.

Dungeon Born Hydras

"Hydras – appropriately named after mythical Greek monsters – are one of nature’s most curious creations. The minuscule freshwater animal has been dubbed “immortal” by scientists due to its uncanny ability to perfectly regenerate itself from only a tiny part of its body."
Humans - constantly regenerating, constantly morphing, constantly progressing in their anatomy and most importantly, they have the ability to constantly progress in their mind, their opinions, their beliefs, their interaction with others.
It is unfortunate, devastating, world obliterating that some choose the monstrous paths and thought processes; that some ridicule and hate others for the choices they have made to feel better about themselves, or for birth aspects out of their control, but we must never give up the good fight to educate and share information and guide those who sadly lack it or choose to ignore it; and hopefully with this approach, every person can be shown or discover their best good version.
No human lacks this potential.

Unparalleled Beauty
07:35
|
|

Every time you survive traumatic or testing experiences, to any degree relevant to yourself, you come out stronger, more equipped to get through the next stage of being. Absorb this progression in your existence with humility. This is a beautiful characteristic, and one that contributes to making the world a more serene, ever mind-blowing, infinitely beautiful place.
I may sound out of touch with reality here, but I believe this to be possible. Surely that's where it starts?

How It All Began
30:35

The first thought process.
The precedence for what followed.
The rawest of emotions.
The beginning experiment behind closed doors that led to everything from that moment on being different.
I struggled desperately to reach the years that I have, but once I began my 5th decade, I decided that 'Since I've come this far, I may as well stick around to see what happens', and it has been an astonishing, unpredictable, wonderful bonus of life and occurrences since then.
Some of you know some of the stories. Some of you don't, but just know that I nearly missed out on it all. I am truly thankful to everyone who helped me to continue to exist, and to those who shape the rest of my life, including myself for summoning up the strength to exist, for giving myself the chance to discover the beautiful insanities that have weaved on in my life since the darkest of times.
You are here now.
You made it this far, so please stay until the end.
You understand me.
You understand yourself.
Close your eyes.
Fall inside the sounds.
Trust me with all you have.
Let me show you more of the sonic, mentally probing, deep-thought drenched landscapes I am creating for those who will deep listen with me.
