Depixelate is a podcast hosted by Dean Berlinerblau that is dedicated to having high-resolution conversations with interesting people about a variety of topics in order to seek the highest truth by exchanging insight, sharing perspectives no matter how much they differ, and reaching clearer understandings.
Scott Morgan, aka Loscil, is an ambient electronic musician, freelance composer, and music technologist.
We about the relationship between music and place, critical self-judgment, his compositional strategies, the interplay between nature and industry, conceptual and non-conceptual creative approaches, catharsis, audiovisual integration, the tools he uses to compose, ways to redefine performance, his career history, how he structures his life as a freelancer, and more.
Lawrence English is an experimental composer, sound artist, listening researcher, curator, photographer, record label owner, and all around creative mastermind.

On this episode of Depixelate, I interpret quotes from Friedrich Nietzsche’s “Thus Spoke Zarathustra” and explain what I think they mean. I talk about the higher self, virtue as a pretense, external versus internal solutions, impulsivity and its relation to judgment, harmonious and disunited states, the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious, pragmatic truth, varying degrees of intention, and many other topics.
How do we exist in our overstimulated society? What provides real value in our lives?
On this episode of Depixelate, I talk about how to manage your attention and measure the significance of what you focus on, the benefits of mindfulness and productive meditation, the importance of living a deep life, and practical strategies on how to implement depth.
