Lucas! Yes! More stuff like this! I hear you, and understand. Your example as an Asian American breaking the mold is strong; I dare say stronger than that of a Latino doing the same, as we're already seen as passionate and stylish etc. I do have to say, however, in regards to the psychedelic culture, all minorities are severely under represented while also being exposed (? Not sure if that's the right word) to intense and rampant cultural appropriation; the psychedelic world is primarily white. That being said, along with the message you shared here in this video, I am quite driven to make my presence known in this scene, and if not the world, at large. I agree - depression is evident when you are not aligned with yourself, where/who you want to go/be/pursuing, a sickness from a lack of harmony with oneself and following some other malfunctional narrative. It's hard for us to truly be ourselves despite being raised in a culture that is so heavily based on individuality. We are misdirected to mistake selfishness for "individuality", when really, everyone is being conditioned to march like lemmings, in tow, to the same rhythm and beat, towards and off the same cliff. Wanting and wearing the expensive kicks and pins and hats and watching the same movies and t.v. shows doesnt make one a unique "individual".

Hi! I love the way you capture light with your camera. Esp the ones that show the light seeping through the trees. How do you do it? I like hearing your thoughts. Wish I could be on the road more :)
