About Me

Amapiano showed up, as I was browsing, and hijacked the holidays for me (endless scrolling through viral dance videos). What an earworm! I need to do something with this newfound insiration. I wondered if anyone had done a drum’n’bass style crossover. Apparently not. I also want to pin this locally, where I live (Chilliwack); breakbeats, jungle, and whatever kind of anthem old town and five corners ends up with by New Year’s. Time to get busy, blaze a trail in some unexplored genre-bend territory, local brew 😉

Result 🙂

Recollection of converations with Thomas, October 2024, describing an experience with someone he met. Shortly after, he released Limerence, paired with edits from The Truman Show. This is my attempt to recall those conversations, moved by the track.

This track never came out, and hearing it now brings me back to 2005, when I had just moved to Yellowknife and met Aaron “Godson” Hernandez after word spread that I played music. We recorded this during the lead-up to Arctic Reign Trilogy Vol 3, with Iffer adding some vocal parts, and pieces of the session later landing on the album while this version stayed put. Listening again as a school psychologist changes how the lyrics land. Having been in Calgary twice during my schooling gives me context to what he was talking about. His plain account of growing up in Forest Lawn hits harder now. The instability. The pressure. The learning challenges that students face, aren’t met with adequate support, but shape everything. The long hours indoors because the streets outside were rough, and how that time became the place where he worked on his craft. The track holds that early meeting, that northern period, and the weight of his story in a way I did not fully grasp then. Unreleased until now. Also interesting how my drum’n’bass nerdy (Vibert/Wagonchrist) influences lasted for over ten years by then, and still influential in my mixes.

Created during Spring Break (March 2025) during vacation in Campbell River, where Iffer lives, the before and after (remix from November 2025)

Another GPT-5 Pro deep research test run, then NotebookLM on the research. Topic this time: Beyond Computational Dualism – Reframing Artificial Intelligence through Enactivist and Pancomputationalist Lenses

Another GPT-5 Pro experiment, this time exploring how probabilistic thinking using AI can help extend otherwise costly System 2 reasoning, decode uncertainty, and enhance predictive power. Results then distilled through NotebookLM for an engaging, accessible podcast discussion.

GPT 5 Pro test, this time deep research on Temporal Credit Assignment, how it manifests and how it is modeled artificially. Article fed to NotebookLM for an engaging, accessible podcast on the topic.

Testing GPT-5 Pro’s deep research. Topic: the Optimization Paradox—the ‘inverted-U’ of hyper-efficiency in AI and life. The research was done by GPT-5 Pro and fed to NotebookLM to create a podcast for a general audience.

A collaboration with Iffer reimagined, the ‘Before’ (a sketch from 2003) and ‘After’ (remixed this August 2025)
