My voice is still stuffy but I wanted to get back to playing music every day. I hardy had energy to play for long but I at least managed to finish a song.

I plan on practicing every day for 30 minutes then sharing the result as a short. Sometimes I’ll share the whole video.

This song is called “Art vs. Artist” and is now up on Spotify, Apple, etc. on my EP “Sun Shone Blue”

Currently working on my second music video, but I'd like to upload this first attempt onto 3speak/Hive because Hive is home.

I started writing this song while living in Tokyo in 2011, just before heading out to drift around, backpacking, busking, and getting pulled into random adventures.

The lyrics were written on a 40 hour train ride, right before I quit my job and decided to live in the flow.

The song slowly took form over the course of the next few years, living between the mountains and the ocean, jamming with friends nearly every day.

The song was recorded in 2019 when I moved back to Japan. I had no idea how to record music so I taught myself and then a lot happened to prevent a re-recording until finally I decided to share the song as it is.

The video was shot in the countryside on the outskirts of Tokyo much more recently. I have only been learning to edit videos for the past few months but I tried to make the best thing I could with limited resources.

I guess this is my first “official music video”

Going to start making some videos about games and this was just a brainstorming about what that’s going to look like.

I’ll probably edit this into a more refined video and share it on social media with links to my Hive accounts.

I decided to finally push myself to make a somewhat well edited video, making the best thing I could with the equipment and resources I have at the moment.

What better topic than Hive. This video (as I mentioned in a post describing the process of making it) started as a steam of consciousness but since I thought it was a great story to attract new users I decided to put some extra effort into it and see how well I could do.

If you also think it’s a good advertisement for Hive, please send the YouTube version to your friends, that way the algorithm will send it to more people and it has a greater chance of bringing more people to Hive. I mention 3speak in it as a YouTube alternative, so I would love if it could bring some people over!

Here is a link to the YouTube version:

How Blogging Changed My Life

Also it would reach more people if you were to share it on Twitter ;-)

I will try to make videos like this every once in a while on other topics and share them on both platforms.

Long time no podcast. Here’s a solo episode where I go into how I’ve grown as a person thanks to blogging over the course of the last seven years.

I talk about the whole experience of using hive as a place to share my thoughts, a place to earn money, and a place to interact with people and how I balance these. I also go into how it’s helped me telling myself and grow.

Trying to survive in the world as an independent artist and thinker. Thoughts on exploration and freedom of ideas.

This was my first livestream on YouTube. Nobody live-streamed it but quite a few people watched or listened to it afterwards in audio podcast or video form.

I just realized I hadn’t uploaded it to 3speak!

It's been a real long time since I made a city vlog like this. Been focused too much on turning all our two way conversations into audio podcasts.

I'll keep making these but at a much slower place. Maybe once a month while I put up the conversations up on spotify and other platforms about once a week.

The text version of this is the post i made 3 or 4 days ago 😉

AI and automation are the hot topic right now and while some people are excited, others are worried about losing their jobs and the potential dangers of this new technology.

I find myself worried about what I’m going to do if this technology makes it near-impossible to find a job and what kind of social implications that might have.

I’m trying my best to remain positive though, as the future is totally unknown, and while it’s totally possible that this artificial intelligence will lead to dystopia or total destruction it’s just as likely that it will reign in a new age of abundance where people are able to pursue their passions and do what they love.

This is how I’m navigating these feelings right now.

Chatbot gpt and dall-e made me realized just how quickly things are going to change, but I’m going to try to make the most of it.

If you like what I share here, I also have a novella series, music, merch and a blog:

This is a song I have only played live a few times and really wanted to share already. It’s a song about the human condition, not just as something set in stone but as something that is always evolving and changing, a story which the authors are the characters.

This was recorded as a rough draft in a friends tiny studio in Hong Kong, and is without any editing, mixing etc. but as I’m not able to do any polished recordings right now I thought it better to share this as it is for now. Hopefully I’ll get around to re-recording sometime in 2023. I was not all that thrilled with the vocals and I’d like to put more instruments in the mix.

How I went from a total depressed mess to an overwhelmingly positive person. Since I was young I’ve always struggled with my emotions, falling into anger, rage and despair regularly. First I was diagnosed with ADHD and feeling that my very nature was considered a disorder (I never once saw it as one), I spiraled into a depressed mess of emotions and stayed that way for many years. Eventually I managed to pull myself out, without medication. I collected many mental and emotional practices that become tools and learned how to use my focus to recover very quickly every time.

The videos were taken around Kofuji Mountain in Shizuoka, outside Tokyo, a great place for viewing Mt. Fuji.

Nothing in this video is medical advice, I’m not a professional anything 😆

There are a lot of topics I could write and make videos on right now but since it’s new years and everyone is in the New Years Vibe, I thought I’d try out 3speak shorts. I’m not sure how it’s different from uploading a regular video but I sure do like having a 3speak app on my phone! hope they add new features and drop the SPK functionality asap because I’m excited to have a better alternative to YouTube to invite friends too, even if I’m also promoting my work on YouTube. love you all. happy new year and yay for jamming in a Tokyo department store

Despite studying Spanish for 6 years I can hardly speak a word. But after a few years my Japanese is upper intermediate to advanced fluency (working on JLPT1 grammar and vocabulary now). It only took me 3-6 months to become conversational in Mandarin. What’s that about?

After attempting to learn a language twice, I got used to studying and figured out the proper ways to motivate myself and manage my time. Hopefully my process can be of some use to you. Curiosity is truly a superpower.

The video footage is of Yoyogi Park Earth Day in Tokyo and a trip to the beach in Kanagawa.

Since I am in the somewhat unique position of having both studied Japanese and Mandarin to a point if being conversational, I thought I'd lay out the difference between the two so people know what they are getting themselves into with either language. Both are really incredible languages so i hope anyone interested tries to learn!

im not sure how many of these songs I will post in the end. There were 6 in all. Some sound better than others. This one is the oldest song that I still play. I can tell you whatninsoired it but i share thatnin the video 😝

Lyrics:

I left my senses out in the Ocean

I can't see too clear

I'm on a train now sitting back relaxing and enjoying the view

You can ask me where I'm going

and I can try to put into words

but if you haven't been there I don't think you'll understand

You think that you're writing a song

but the song's really writing you

we play a part in a big play but fail to look the other way

at the you that's directing you

We think that the saddest part is so lonely and unfair

and fail to see the simple fact that everything's right there

I've gotten over these shoes and where they are going

I'm wanted somewhere else

I'll send my blessings every day in the wind

A few short clips of me messing around on random instruments. I know a lot of people who think music is something we need to study and perfect, but that's only one kind of music... there is another kind that emerges from play and a desire to express, it can benefit from technical skills but doesn't reauire any. I can't play dombra, I only messed around on djembe and asalato for a few hours each, and yet I can make somethinf that sounds ok. It's merely a natural result of exploration, not expecting anything to sound a certain way, just teying to find what kind of sounds i can make.

At first Javier (@drrune) and i had an amazing conversation about his rune reading process and how he got into it, but instagram (where we were streaming somehow deleted that archived video and we lot iit forever).

Luckily the second half of the video remained and this is the first half of it. We talk about past lives, shadow work and trauma. If you want the second half already, it's up on youtube.

I'm very excited to share this today because one of my students expressed an interest in these topics and when i mentioned the podcast she was so excited.

Sone of you may have watched this when it was initially released as a long 2 hour podcast but now I've been cutting the videos up and exrracting the most valuable and informative and fun moments and asding the local footage. hope you enjoy it!

It's been a two weeks since i first posted this one on youtube but since my back was bothering me I fell behind schedule with posting on 3speak. This is the new format for the podcast, It takes a lot more time to put together but I thibk the final product is much more fun to watch and listen to. I will try to keep posting 1-2 videos like this a week. Will put up another with @josediccus soon and then one with @machiattaaboit life in Indonesia

I mentioned i'd be working on some new kind of content yeatersay and shared the transcript. This is the final product.

the only question now is if I'm going to make it a seperate channel for Japan and language study related content or if I'm going to trycand balance it on my current youtube channel. Of i do try to balance it with my other content, the algorithms may punish me for not niching down, or it could have the opposite effect of helping me find an audience for the podcast. It's really hard to say.

Either way, I will be sharing them on 3speak 😉

Let me know what you think.

Edited down for your viewing convenience. Untangled Knots podcast where we share, mix and create culture.

For the past few months I've been recording 1-2 hour episodes and releasing them in 40 minute unedited clips. I decided recently to cut them up even smaller and edit out the unnecessary parts, making each video 3-8 minutes, fitting for the busy life we all seem to be living these days.

In this episode @young-boss-karin and I disucss some traditional health practices. our conversation was informative and, at times hilarious. I can't wait to have her on again.

Recently I've been trying to promote this podcast on Youtube so for the time being I'm uploading there first (that will change once things get moving, Hive and 3speak is always home). you can see more episodes, including another just uploaded with Karina on Nigerian customs.

78 subscribers there, only 22 more until I can customize my URL! I would really appreciate if you could watch 100% of the newest video at Youtube, the algorithm doesn't like if you end the video early. Or if you think this would be interesting to tour friends, please give it a share!

Much love hive, Much love Naija, Much love everyone!

Recently I've been rather busy editing town short podcast episodes, so busy in fact, that I forgot to share with you all the awesome videos from my performance on July 10th.

I wasn't expected a ton of people to come because I don't socialize much anymore, but between the three performers we managed to nearly fill the place. 40-45 people?

I'm actually incredibly impressed with the audio quality on this video, the treble and bass weren't the best mix I could get and to me it sounded pretty weak, but then when I listened to the recording the guitar sounded eay better than it did in person. You can actually hear some of the nuance.

Let me know what you think 😉

As an experiment, I tried to edit one of my podcasts down to maximize impact and minimize the time necessary to watch.

As I said yesterday, I decided to start taking YouTube more seriously, in part for my own well-being, in part because I think this work is valuable and would love for it to reach a larger audience, and lastly in order to bring more people back to the Hive community.

I'm still not sure if this works or not, so I'd like to get some opinions. Please watch it first and then let me know what you think.

I edited 21 minutes fown to 7. In the future I plan to make more adjustments. I'll be leveling up on lighting and thimbnails. I will aso add some text to clarify things that are hard to hear. I will also be moving to skype so there will be no livestream and the release will be at 3speak first and then other platforms.

I don't want to do anything that feels fake, but at least I want to put some more effort into it.

For now I just want to know if this catches you and makes you want to watch more.

I followed a friend on a tour in 2015. We went to 9 cities and played some of the laziest most fun shows I've ever been part of. This one was in an artsy village at a friends cafe, but the cafe was under construction fo 3 years because the wner didnt actually want to open to the public. you had to ring the doorbell and ask if he was open. He would say "No, but come in" and then serve you cofee or tea. then if youasked him how much, he would trll you the price and add "but if you dont feel like paying that is ok". obviously his business model was not sustainable because 99% of people didnt have the guts to ring the doorbell but it was a really good time the 7 or 8 times I hung out there. This was the middle of our tour and for this particular city, 3 different friends from 3 other cities came and so I got to jam with friends from 4 cities including teo of my 3 drummers (the male and frmale who look like they know ehat they are doing). I loved this show so much! I didn't know I had this video so I am ultra excited! It was taken by a friend eho is a graffiti artist, Idlove to get back in touch with him!

For episode 7 I had one of the most underated Hivesters I've come across, my friend Karina, better known as @young-boss-karin.

Our topic this time was "Weird and crazy shit we've come across". Check out part 1 here:

While part 1 focused on more positive or neutral things, Part 2 focuses on dangerous cults, homelessness, scamming and over-drinking. Of course it's not always comfortable or pleasant to talk about he negative aspects of a place, but through talking with people like Karina, I think it's obvious that there are lots of people who represent the good in humanity and that this country is worthy people's curiosty and understanding. I hope that through episodes like this people from other countries realize they could easily make friends from Nigeria (or whatever other country we are focused on for that episode). I was impressed with both of our abilities to come up with this stuff on the spot. We are not putting down any of these practices, just trying to find the ones which might be most shocking to those from other cultures.

This was fun, I hope to have her back soon. GO FOLLOW HER AT @young-boss-karin on Hive!

For episode 7.1 I had one of the most underated Hivesters I've come across, my friend Karina, better known as @young-boss-karin.

Our topic this time was "Weird and crazy shit we've come across". Some of the topics we came up with were stretching babies, massages that make you pregnant, molding heads, blood cupping, cults and polygomy. In part one we focus more on family planning or lack-there-of and health practices, including my strange health practices, and that of some Nigerian women.

I was impressed with both of our abilities to come up with this stuff on the spot. We are not putting down any of these practices, just trying to find the ones which might be most shocking to those from other cultures.

This is part 2!

You can find part 1 here:

In this one I talk a bit about my own process of self-love and getting out of my comfort zone to push myself forward.

After having Ching Yi on twice as a kind of co-host, this time she joined me as a guest but ended up becoming the host and letting me be the guest. I love having her on because she always asks great questions. The main topic we wanted to talk about today was how we explore self love and self healing, but as usual, we float around these topics very liberally.

You can find Chingyi on Instagram: @ chingyion and @ missyellow_inwhite

If you want to see her on Hive let her know in the comments, she has been interested in Hive for a long time now but has yet to join.

And if you like what I do, check out my novella series "Confessions of the Damaged" in the link below ;-)

I was hoping to put up the next eisode of UNTANGLED KNOTS podcast today, but there are still a few little things to fix so hopefully tomorrow or the next day. Chingyi joined me for a solo episode and ive been excited to put that out (also excited about the episode I just recorded with @young-boss-karin that will be up next week). I did hoewever get my new mic in the mail, and the mic check turned out better than expectedso I thought I'd share it.

The purpose of getting this mic was to level up the sound on the podcast, I was NOT expecting it to sound this good with accoustic guitar. I think I can get an even better sound once I better figure out how it works.

This week was full of live music events st a very very casual venue where it fet like someones rooftop. This is not a typical place and from my video you may think the crowd is pretty old but there are a bunch of people in their 20's out of the frame and some house, psytrance etc that i didnt film.

In this podcast we discuss whether its ok or not to hit children from the persepctive of 3 individuals from 3 different cultural backgrounds. none of us claim to be completely respresentative of our home country but we all try to share what we understand of the cultural "common sense" as well as our personal perspective.

This was the most challenging podcast I have done so far but it was a fun one because of the company. I like how we can disagree with respect and patience, not trying to prove the other person wrong but merely trying to share our own perspectives and listening and learning from each other. It would not be so easy without lovable guests like these two. Thank you so much Chingyi and @josediccus for joining me!

Josediccus asked to not be set as a beneficiary. Chingyi said she will collect her share of this posts rewards if she decides to finally join Hive 😂

Once again Ching Yi, @josediccus and I compare some aspects of the cultures we grew up in (Hong Kong, Nigeria and USA respectively). the first half eas fun and lighthearted but the second half got pretty heavy with some very different ideas about discipline, but we still manage to get along and enjoy hearing each ithers perspectives as usual.

This is part 1/2

both participants declined beneficiary rewards but you can show then some love:

@josediccus is on hive of course and Ching Yi has yet to join but on instagram she is @chingyion and @missyellow_inwhite

I've definetly become more of a hermit in thr past few years. It's not even about how world events all pushed us into boxes in many countries. I have become more secure with myself and in the process I feel new desires popping up that sre very different from the old ones. I really want sone social time but now there is a new desire for SPACE and QUIET that i never felt before. Am i just getting old? or am I leveling up?

i made this 3 days ago, had trouble posting it and then forgot about it! Podcast #4 coming within 36 hours. we talk about school and discipline in different cultures. It was a heavy but meaningful conversation.

yesterday after recording that open mic song i sat down to do a little self reflection. the day ended up being a bit of a rollercoaster but afterwards I felt like i had come out of the otherside of something big. Such is shadowwork, or whatever you wanna call it. I hope I am never overly dramatic or self-important, except when I know I'm being self-important which is often. i guess i can't help breaking the fourth wall and doing everything I can to dismantle the fluff. ooooo are we being dramatic now? 94% uploaded....I cant think of anything else to say before this video is .....100% uploaded! love you all

this is the sleepiest version of this song that I've recorded to date.

this is one of the oldest songs that i have that i still play althoguh it doesnt seem to have a final form, it keeps changing along with me. The name Invisible Strings also inspired my podcast name Untangled Knots, cause if you wsnna weave something nice you gotta undo all the messy tangled stuff.

i have no idea why i decided to record this before washing my face putting on pants or brushing my teeth but i decided to only do one take so this is it! yay

I know there are many people who have been through far worse situations. I am sometimes too aware and so it makes my fear of being ficked by the system all the stronger. i can only speak for myself andmy own experience though. These were the thoughts running around in my head today.

Huge thanks to @drrune not only for the conversations we've recorded but also al the ones we haven't. This is part 3 of 3. He will be back soon!

Episode #3 is with @Vincentnijman and will be 2 parts. We talk about Failure and the Creative Process. Some moments are pretty funny and as aways it's all real.

I'm coming up with ideas for Episode #4 but it will likely have 2-3 guests, waiting for their confirmation. Hopefully I will have a new phone by then.

ive been writing this song for years already. it's actually an epic 8-12 minute song but putting it all together has been tricky and I've been more focused on writing novels and podcasts these days. i think i finallynfigured out that i like it in D, because in E it's too low for my voice and in A it's too high.

one of these days I've got to finish it !

It's about the seemingly neverending cycle of war and hatred that only ends if we can step outside of our own fear and seek more than just survival.

I never uploaded the demo version but you can hear some other songs here:

Screen recording was a nightmare so I made part 2 shorter than planned. Part 3 will be a bit longer than 1 and 2 for that reason.

Further information will be up at peakd.

Enjoy!

Untangled Knots is something I've wanted to do forever but wasn't feeling up to for various reasons for a long time. @josediccus agreed to a practice round with me. While we were figuring out the controls and how to record, Ching Yi, a long time friend popped in and stayed with us through the entire recording. The first episode and onward willbe a little different and things will evolve as they go, but we all thought this conversation was worth sharing. Part 2 will be up soon.

i dont usually like to take videos of things that are unique in Japan. I know it's interesting to a lot of people hut I've spent 8 years here so none of it is all that exciting to show because I've already spent a lot of time thinking or talking about it. Every once in a while, I see something new though.

I know, I know, war has been around for centuries and I doubt it will dispapear overnight, but we have tools that can help us see into other people's worlds, and technoligy to create ahundance, so perhaps we can make such things move slowly to obsoletion. it may take 100 or 200 years but we will begin to see a difference right away.

This is one of my favorite songs to play but its a little strange on the guitarlele. The second half is a little better than the first. You can hear the recorded demo here:

It's been a long time since I participated in eco train but they aleays have nice prompts. This one really got me thinking. The first time i recorded, i accidently said "Mastubration" instead of "Meditation" but the video was such a disorganized mess that i ended up making a new one! Freudian Slip, i suppose?

This is my experience with meditation from 15 years ago til now 🏄🏼

Today we went for a walk in the snow. My partner had never seem slush before, and its only her third time seeing snow.

I've been focused on work and my own mind these days...talking to myself a lot more than ever, trying to heal whatever parts of myself still haven't. It's funny, I feel mostly healed, at least in comparison to most people I meet or see on TV, but my body tells me otherwise. I know there are still parts of my that need healing.

This is a song I wrote in the summer whole climbing a mountain (easy climbing, no hands needed). I brought my guitarlele with me and played as i walked up the path. Later i got back to our studio on the ocean and we jammed it out together. I later recorded a kind of fuzzy version of it, but i still like singing it together like this the best.

It's called "Speaking Leaves" by I+Everything (me)

Here i talk about one of my life philosophies and how it's helped me succeed at Hive. I wanted to talk about a few people who I have seen use the same tools to succeed but ill save that for an article.

I think I'm going to be using the open mic to get back into songwriting. Every time I will spend between 10 minutes to an hour jamming on the theme and share my result.

It's been two years since I wrote a full song, maybe this will get the juices flowing again.

I just need an excuse to pick up the guitar...I feel the energy flowing back to me already 🙂 This weeks theme was "Motivation to Achieve"

Just found this old video of me playing one of my songs on electric. I rarely play electric guitar, mostly because i dont have a comfortable studio to leave things set up and ready to play and because walls are so thin in Japan so it's not really possible to play electric without causingg your neighbors to hate you and possible the police to come knock on your door. I would like to get back to this music thing soon but I have other things on my plate now. I just saw a preview of the artwork for Confessions of the Damaged 1.2 mini novella. I will try to release that sometime in January. 1.3 will be on the way soon after that. I do miss guitar though....so we might have to figure something out

This is a song I wrote and scrapped and rewrote and scrapped and rewr....you get the idea.

i still dont feel it's solid, still in utero if you know what I mean.

I was happy to play it again after almost 2 years.

I'm not selling. I'm not stressed. I just wish I had cashed out at 69k to buy the dip! This is exactly why I treat crypto as a long term investment rather than as income. Do whatever it takes to stack your sats and tour Hive. The grind may be hard but in a year or two you will thank yourself! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The paradigm is changing. You don't need to copy others or fake anything to find your success. All you need you need to do is find your people. Your true success will look nothing like anyone else's so do it the way that excited you.

Some experimental editing in this one... hahha hope you enjoy it

We are going to see a massive influx of users coming on board in the coming weeks. If I'm being honest, I wasnt sure we'd ever get here, but it won't be long before hive.blog, ecency, and peakd.com have more users than steemit ever did. People are starting to talk about social media on the blockchain and at least the name Hive seems to be on some of their minds. People are about to start talking, so will you take advantage if the situationand put yourself at the center of web3.0?
