Read Chapter 3 of Dividing By Zero!
This month, Dividing By Zero takes a turn for the sexy.
I still had the untz untz booming around my skull and was cleaning up in time to the beat of the bass in my head. I recalled the timid touches and let myself indulge in a short fantasy. Anton Nabukov’s dying eyes came to life for a little while on the dance floor. I loved exerting that kind of power over a new target. Noticing my dopey...

Behold, my first venture in music video making.
I used a Canon 7D and the help of willing family members.
I filmed it the week of Christmas/New Years 2012 in Miami Beach, Wynwood, Brickell, I-95 and my uncle’s wedding.
Enjoy, kids.

post sandy subway ride
I commuted via subway to work today for the first time after the hurricane. I’m always a big proponent of public transportation, especially compared to my friends who prefer cabs (usually those in finance or consulting), but when it’s routine, you forget what’s so amazing about the massive public transit system in New York City.
Here are all these people coming together in a...

Chuck
Just finished Chapter 1 of Survivor and I am overwhelmed by how much I love Chuck Palahniuk and aspire to write something that touches someone as much as his works touch me.
Run on sentences. Action.

some thoughts and feels
I’ve been on a bender of mild depression and have been turning to the dark corners of Tumblr for comfort. What I found was a community of sad suicidal cutters full of self-loathing. I don’t want to pretend to know your pain. Everyone’s pain is different and I think overall I got off fairly easy, but everybody hurts, sometimes.
Sometimes, it’s so overwhelming you feel...

gawky swag
Over the past couple of years, I have come to terms with a little something I like to call “gawky swag.” It manifests itself whenever I perform any sort of physical activirty that does not require strict technique and form.
Yoga, crew, pilates, spinning, all those things require very specific movement I can handle pretty well. I look like a boss going through those sun salutations and...

more thoughts on Starscape
After writing my review, there are just a few lingering thoughts about the whole festival experience I chose to omit for style and content reasons.
EDMInsider Event Review: Escape to Starscape, Baltimore’s Garden of Eden
First of all, my shoddy attempt at arts and crafts was totally worth it. I love that sign and am so glad I made it. Waving it around as I danced like a loon on...

moment of weakness due to lack of inspiration
I watch the embers burn, trying to decipher their language. As if they’re speaking to me. As if there’s some ungodly truth behind each flaking bit of ash.
I hate the smell of cigarettes. I hate smoking.
But, still, I inhale bit of nicotine and carcinogens and traces of fatal poison, and I feel a rush of mild euphoria overcome me, a feeling that is both familiar and unknown.
Wind tears...
