About me
CREATIVITY CAN MAKE US ALL SANE AGAIN As communicators it is our responsibility to be considerate about what emotions we evoke in the people we talk to. We spend time researching them and understanding them intimately, finding insights that truly connect them with our message. Repeated abuse of this knowledge has contributed to the increase of general sadness, feelings of incompleteness and essentially a public that blindly rushes from purchase to purchase in the hopes of filling the void that mass media has created. This way of communicating cannot last forever, neither mentally, nor ecologically. I want to use my skills as a creative and communicator to guide our society towards a more sustainable mindset. Be this in consideration of how our habits impact the external, or our own, unique, internal environment.

  • ALXCX
    ALXCXI've always been into making music, sound fascinates me. However, usually finishing a track to the point where I can actually release it, is fairly difficult. When moving home after graduating from University, it became a sort of outlet that I hadn't touched for the majority of my time studying so I wanted to get into it again. It all comes with a hint of bitterness about not being able to visit the festivals and parties that summer usually brings. (EDM/Techno/Progressive I believe)
