"Fight Club" is for the Everyman. [Book/Movie] (Review) 20.11.2021 37:09
I've seen Fight Club many times and I finally get around to a review! The movie takes a lot straight from the book and the story itself is amazing. (REVIEW - WEEK 46, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com

"We Need to Talk About Kevin", [Movie]. Explained. (REVIEW) 09.11.2021 40:19
I watch the movie, "We Need to Talk About Kevin" again and discuss the themes of the film and the brilliance it has. This is a dark portrayal of a mother/son relationship that challenges the viewer to ask themselves, "why?" often and shoves the notion of Nature Vs Nurture in your face. (REVIEW - WEEK 45, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
How does Fear Motivate me. (CONVERSATION) 03.11.2021 16:50

Pain Signals a Need for Change (CONVERSATION) 22.10.2021 13:20
I continue on from last week's Conversation about Anger and Sadness and discuss them as manifestations of pain and how that signifies a need for change in my life. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 42, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com

A Desire to be More than Human (CONVERSATION) 05.10.2021 14:52

To Have Loved and Lost... (CONVERSATION) 24.09.2021 14:24
I ponder the question and challenge it a bit; I try and decide where I land on this. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 38, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Sonder (CONVERSATION) 17.09.2021 11:46
We have to get into the origin of the word a bit and then talk about why this freaks me out. Also how it relates to my Solipsism. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 37, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Imposter Syndrome (CONVERSATION) 10.09.2021 15:42

Music/Pain Demands to be Felt (CONVERSATION) 01.09.2021 16:42
I discuss how music effects me way too much at times. This isn't that much of a continuation of the last Pain Demands to be Felt conversation but does relate. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 35, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Dem Atlas "Bad Actress" Album Review/Deconstruction - (REVIEW) 29.08.2021 54:06
This album is a record of pain. And as I've recited many times before - pain demands to be felt. This body of work is great but over the course of 15 tracks, it can weigh on you; it's heavy. I go track by track and discuss the conceptual and lyrical elements along with some of the instrumentation as well. (REVIEW - WEEK 35, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Addicted to Safety (CONVERSATION) 25.08.2021 12:04

"Donnie Darko", A Dark Beautiful Mess - (REVIEW) 23.08.2021 19:46
I give you the worst review ever on one of the best movies. It's messed up. It's beautiful, dark, cerebral, and set in the 80s. Just watch it. (REVIEW - WEEK 34, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Compatibility Vs Chemistry (CONVERSATION) 19.08.2021 17:14
I discuss me coming to some of these obvious realisations late in life. How to balance these two things to determine what relationships work for you and which don't and why etc. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 33, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Romanticising Mental Illness... (CONVERSATION) 11.08.2021 23:13
I use an out of context Bukowski quote, "she is mad, she is magic, there's no lie in her fire." for fodder. And discuss how we should try and get a fuller picture instead of romanticising mental health issues etc. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 32, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Living Life VS. Talking About Life Pt. 2? (CONVERSATION) 06.08.2021 16:23

"CALVIN" Calvin and Hobbes Extension? - (REVIEW) 02.08.2021 19:17
This book is adjacent to the Calvin and Hobbes universe and has an interesting take on Calvin as a character. Here, he's a schizophrenic teen who still sees Hobbes... (REVIEW - WEEK 31, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com

Disassociating (CONVERSATION) 19.07.2021 23:22
I have to admit that my mental health seems to be declining. Disassociating seems to be a thing... (CONVERSATION - WEEK 29, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
Pain Demands to be Felt (CONVERSATION) 14.07.2021 7:39
I was in a weird place for this one. My demeanor isn't just because I was sad but because I was in the open and wanted to be quiet. I was distracted and off. I'll most likely revisit this again sometime. (CONVERSATION - WEEK 28, YEAR 3) . Social Media: http://linktr.ee/Fk_Arts fk.artists@gmail.com
"DRIVE" Action, Aesthetic, A Mood, And a Thinker. - (REVIEW) 09.07.2021 31:30
This is one of my favourite movies ever. It is so incredibly well thought out and is entertaining on various levels. It has an incredible cinematic style and gives you edge of your seat tension while discreetly giving you some big concepts to think about if you want. Allow yourself to think about the cerebral qualities and questions it poses or just go along for the ride - either way it's incredib...
