The Ghost of Hotel San Carlos with Ron Blake

행복한 회전목마

폐허가된 놀이공원에 덩그러니 놓여있는 회전목마
낡고, 병들고, 지저분한채로 수십년간 방치된 것 처럼 보이네요.
그럼에도 그는 아직도 찬란하고 빛났던 아주 오래전의 순간을 꿈꾸고 있습니다.


A happy Merry-go-round

Old and rusty 'Merry-go-round' is in a ruined amusement park
he seems like neglected for decades
Nevertheless, he have dreamed of a very long time ago when he was happy.


A happy Merry-go-round - Aligom

Talking about my nightmares, after the shock, when PTSD symptoms overwhelmed me.
I spent so many years in deep dark, surrounded by death and evil, struggling to overcome despair and find a path to life …

Vi samtalar om:

Om coaching, föreläsningar, workshops och vad det innebär med förändringsledare.
Att hjälpa människor, organisationer och teams.
Om självledarskap.
Om Förebildspodden och om Noomi Sundström.
Om när kom intresse att jobba med det här.
Att det kom ifrån frustration och vrede.
Att vara entreprenör och förlora det.
Att titta på människans yttre bara och att vi borde titta på människans inre.
Om psykiskt ohälsa, PTSD, trauma och tabur.
Om Nicolas Lunabba och Navid Modiri.
Att vara bitter och att se saker utifrån ett annat perspektiv val.
Att se ljuset i mörkret. 
Om jämförelse vi gör och pandemintiden.
Om begreppet förebild/ eldsjäl och om barn som är förebilder.
Att rensa saker är viktigt, om acceptans, tacksamhet och perspektiv.
Om kriget, barndomen, om revolutionen ifrån 1979 i Iran och engagemangen i politiken.
Att vara i fängelse i 101 dagar och utsattes för tortyr.

Om cancer, depression och ångest.
Om traumatiska bilder och smugglare i gummibåtar.
Att ha restauranger, att bli stum och handikappad.
Om när hoppet inte känns hoppfull föreläsning.
Om hopp, att leva eller överleva.
Om Conny Sohlberg och om döden.
Om hjärnan och offerkofta.

Krop og sind har i flere hundrede år været anskuet som to separate størrelser i den vestlige verden. I dag peger vi på, hvorfor denne adskillelse hverken er hensigtsmæssig eller sand – og hvorfor det er hjælpsomt at forstå, hvordan de i virkeligheden hænger uløseligt sammen.

I De Tre Principper kan vi nogle gange have en tendens til at glemme kroppen og kun fokusere på sindet. Det vil vi gerne være med til at ændre på.

Podcasten er med psykolog Anne Stærk Dickenson og psykoterapeut Belinda Donkin.

Homecoming/Aftermath Lyrics - 


I see you on the doorstep, love, 
your shadow trembling in the light.
I waited through the endless months, 
praying you'd survive the fight.
Your hands are cold as winter stone, 
but still I hold them tight.
Welcome home, my broken heart — 
come rest with me tonight.

I see the war still in your eyes, a darkness buried deep.

I’ll be your shelter, love, 
when fear won’t let you sleep.
Lay down your weary bones, 
I’ll chase those ghosts away.
You’re safe now, love… 
at least for one more day.


the bed dissolves, 
I'm dragged back to the pit!
Inhuman Atrocities bursts my mind ! 
comrades torn apart bit by bit!
Screams ricochet through my skull, 
their faces split and lit!
Blood-mist choking every breath 
no way to escape it!

I hear the crunch of bone beneath my boots in the dark!
Hot metal bites my flesh — leaves a memory like a mark!

I claw the sheets like sandbags, waiting for the spark—
The blast that ends the silence and rips my mind apart!


Wake up, my love — you’re here with me, you’re safe inside this room.
Come back from all those haunted fields where shattered echoes bloom.

I’m holding you, just breathe with me, don’t drown inside that gloom.

No nightmare has the right to drag you back into its tomb.

I see the horror shaking you, 
I feel your heartbeat race.
But here you’re held, not hunted — 
here you have a place.

Let me be the warmth that war could never erase.
Stay with me, love… feel my hands, feel my embrace.


Every street becomes a warzone — flashbacks ripping through!
Every spark of noise explodes the battlefield anew!
Faces of the fallen seize like rot — I can’t break through!

I’m home but still in hell — I don't know what to do!

I’m home but still in hell — I don't know what to do!

I’m home but still in hell — I don't know what to do!

I’m home but still in hell — I don't know what to do!

My love, this cruelty must end — 
no soul deserves this pain.
No nation’s pride is worth the scars carved deep into your brain.
One day the ones who sent you there 
will answer for this stain—
And until that day, 
my love… 

I’ll help you live again.

Tales from the Trench pt.III : Homecoming/Aftermath

(っ╥﹏╥ς)  ｡ ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ ｡   ╾━╤デ╦︻ (•_- )
J'ai encore voulu mourir, ça a finit sous electrogramme
Je consommais tout le sachet, en une nuit j'tapais 5 grammes
Ouais je bouffais tous les cachets, j'prenais toute la cam
J'me fait trop de mal c'est abusé, j'prie dieu pour garder mon âme

Je sors pas de la maison, soit on me la livrait ou c'était en ship
Shoutout à Personne je suis au plus bas, et personne est là pour moi
Fallait être là avant la fin, pleurez pas devant l'cadavre tout froid
J'gamberge sur les frères mort sous OD, ma voix me chuchote RIP

J'suis en detresse j'change d'anti dep, tous les 2 mois
Y'a rien qui  a changé je crois, à part l'état de mes reins
J'écoute le psychiatre et tout empire, j'veux plus vivre en étant moi
J'pense encore à mon ex, ça allait mieux en étant dans ta main

La femme dans ma tête me répète, que j'vivrai pas vieux
J'écoute les conseils des gens, et j'suis toujours pas heureux
j'sais toujours pas dormir, sous benzodiazépines
Y'a plus d'solutions j'vais commencer à taper, la diamorphine

Y'a 3 mois j'étais amoureux et j'ai fini sous Abilify
J'ressens plus rien dans ce monde, je veux me taille
Incapable de supporter les pertes, c'est pour ça que j'm'entaille
C'est moi l'agneau déguisé en loup, sortir dehors c'est une bataille

Shoutout à Elfie c'est la seule qui pleurera, si j'quitte cette vie
J'me rends que vivre ce sera toujours, un combat contre moi même
Gagner ou perdre ça changera pas la donne, un jour tout ça sera fini
J'aime une fille j'sais pas c'qu'elle veut, ça changera avec des roses et un poème

Je me rendors dès qu'je me réveille, j'fuis mes pensées dans mon sommeil
Si j'peux pas j'passe à coccinelle, j'me mets khabat et j'tise toute la teille
J'bois au goulot toute la bouteille, et j'traine dans les rues d'Valenciennes
J'finirai par m'piquer comme une abeille, ça m'rappelle mes anges à l'ancienne

Ma voix m'fait ouvrir les yeux sur les faux frères
J'pleurais pour des gens remplis de vices et de galère
J'agis comme si de rien, face à eux j'fais mine
J'ai trop fait pour eux, ça oublie déjà tout  tout comme sous kétamine

Personne était là pour Lillian, son nom a finit gravé sur une pierre
Depuis ta mort ils t'oublient, Les anges veillent sur toi au pere-lachaise 
La seule chose qui était fidèle, c'était ton pc et ton héroine
J'oublierai pas l'sang par terre, t'as convulsé en tombant d'la chaise
Tu t'es étouffé dans ton vomi  repose en paix tu voulais un peu d'serotonine


RIP l'héro m'a prit mes frères...)

Episode 441 - Mary Mosteller (The Taylor Foundation)

A song about what it costs to keep asking for help — and what it takes to stop needing permission to be believed.

Believe Me

אווו, הפצעים שלא רואים, הצעקה שאין לה קול יום ההוקרה... זה לא רק יום בלוח שנה, אחי. זה כל יום, אצלנו זה כל שעה.

מתעורר בבוקר, שוב הזיעה הקרה, שוב אותה המלחמה, לא בעזה או לבנון, אלא מול הביורוקרטיה העקומה אצלנו בסלון. הייתי רמבו, חשבתי שאני בלתי מנוצח, עכשיו אני יושב מול הועדה, מרגיש כמו מטרה דמות במטווח. הם רוצים ניירות, אני רוצה לנשום ואולי קצת סוף סוף לחיות. מנסה למצוא קצת באלנס בין בתים מאזנים, חברים הלומים מכל השנים, בין האינדי-בורד לכדורים, מחפש את השפיות באתי להתאזן רגע לפני ההתרסקות. הפתיל שלי קצר, הוא נשרף עוד לפני שהוא נדלק, או שהוא בכלל נשרף מזמן בלי להשאיר שום סימן. אני הילד הרע של הבית, הפצוע המסוכן.

אתם לא רואים את הדם, כי הוא זורם בפנים אנחנו הלוחמים השקופים, הגיבורים שהם המתים-חיים. תגידו תודה, תגידו סליחה, תגידו שאתם מבינים. אבל אל תגידו לי שזה עבר, כי אנחנו עדיין שם, בין הפגזים!

אז ברחתי לים, לקחתי גלשן ודרכון, וקדימה לתאילנד, פיליפינים, רק למצוא את הנכון. גל של שני מטר, נכנס לצינור, שוכח מהכל, רק שם במים, הרעש בראש מפסיק לגדול. לא שותה יותר, נקי, מפוקס כמו לייזר, מחליף את הוויסקי בשייק בננה ומבט על הגל. פוגש חברים מהעבר, סוגר מעגלים, כל יום זה שיעור, כל יום אנחנו גדלים. וגם כשיש נפילות, והלב שוב נשבר, אני יודע שיש לי אותי, וזה הדבר שנשאר.

Whae Guro... Whae Guro... המורה המופלא, הכוח שמרים אותי מהרצפה. זה לא נגמר עד שזה נגמר, אני בוחר בחיים. גם אם הנפש שרוטה, והלב מלא בחורים, אני מפיק את המסע הזה, אני הבמאי והשחקן, והיום אני עומד כאן, גאה, חזק ומוכן!

אתם לא רואים את הדם, כי הוא זורם בפנים אנחנו הלוחמים השקופים, הגיבורים שהם המתים-חיים. תגידו תודה, תגידו סליחה, תגידו שאתם מבינים. אבל אל תגידו לי שזה עבר, כי אנחנו כאן, ואנחנו נלחמים!

הוקרה... למי שנתן את הנשמה... זה היומן שלי. זה החיים שלנו. תודה.

Local Hero är en podd om förebilder och eldsjälar där vi intervjuar personer som brinner för det de gör, inspirerar och gör något gott i världen. Dessa personer har olika yrken, sysselsättningar och professioner. Det kan vara stort som smått men något gott.  Antonio och Nils är två kollegor från en förskola, tycker inte att detta ska tas för givet och vill därmed lyfta dessa människor, sprida ljus och hopp samt inspirera andra.

De 3 Principper med Stærk & Donkin er en podcast serie, der formidler en helt ny psykologisk forståelse. 

Det er en serie for dig, der har lyst til at få skovlen under din angst, stress, depression eller overtænkning uden at skulle bruge viljestyrke eller kæmpe for det. Den er også for dig, der er nysgerrig på psykologi og bare gerne vil have mere glæde og lethed i livet.  

Du får ikke værktøjer, som du skal øve dig på eller strategier, som du skal huske. Faktisk er budskabet at du skal gøre meget mindre med din tænkning end du hidtil har gjort - og at netop det vil hjælpe dig med at finde tilbage til dig selv og få det godt igen. 

Psykoterapeut Belinda Donkin og psykolog Anne Stærk Dickenson tager dig med på en guidet tur og peger dig i retning af den naturligt indbyggede ro, glæde og psykiske sundhed, som altid er tilgængelig for alle mennesker. 
Du vil opdage, at der altid er håb - der er bare lige noget du skal få øje på først.

Læn dig tilbage, slap af - og glem alt hvad du hidtil har troet var årsagen til dine problemer og psykiske udfordringer.

Du kan se og høre meget mere til Anne & Belinda. Tjek os ud i vores online-fællesskab på www.3puniverset.dk

Hvis du har et emne, som du gerne vil have os til at tage op, så send os gerne en mail: mail@annestaerk.dk  eller belinda@donkin.dk

Monkssnap: Artistic Profile and Professional Framework

Monkssnap is an artist with global reach, operating within a strategic, artistic, and professional framework. The project addresses collaborators, curators, institutions, funding bodies, media, and rights holders seeking work with documented international relevance and artistic autonomy.

Monkssnap’s professional standing allows for engagement with curators, institutions, and funding bodies on a peer-to-peer basis.

Operational Pillars

Key pillars of the project’s operations include:

Artistic Autonomy
The project prioritizes independent platforms and refuses extractive structures, such as disproportionate 360-degree deals, ensuring that artistic identity is never compromised for commercial gain.

Transdisciplinary Impact
Monkssnap bridges the intersection of art, society, and expression, lending legitimacy to experimental and political work that resonates universally.

Ethical Positioning
All collaborations are approached as partnerships aimed at scaling an already functioning platform, grounded in long-term integrity and a refusal to separate artistic value from ethical responsibility.

Musical and Cultural Profile

In the digital sphere, Monkssnap is highly active on platforms like SoundCloud, where they blend Drum & Bass, Hip-Hop, and Electronic music with Ugandan cultural themes.

2025 Activity
Recent late-2025 releases include the Bunyangabu Connect series (Parts 1–3) and tracks like Sailor, which explore digital awareness, community research, and spiritual reflections.

Cultural Synthesis
By incorporating Luganda and local references and into high-tier electronic production, the artist maintains documented international relevance while remaining rooted in local societal themes.

With a global following exceeding 300,000, Monkssnap is positioned in the upper international tier of contemporary music practice. This reach represents cultural capital rather than mere commercial value, with algorithmically validated relevance across markets and a professional standing that resonates universally rather than contextually.

Artistic Positioning and Collaboration Framework

The project lends legitimacy to transdisciplinary, political, and experimental work, enabling collaboration without compromise of artistic identity. Engagements are approached as partnerships, not trials, and all agreements are evaluated as the scaling of an already functioning platform. Extractive structures — including disproportionate 360-degree deals — are considered incompatible with the project’s foundation.

Monkssnap operates at the intersection of art, society, and expression, combining political and societal relevance with an independent platform and a high degree of artistic autonomy. The work is grounded in integrity, long-term perspective, and a refusal to separate artistic value from ethical positioning.

Background and Social Commitment

When Monkssnap started writing music, Monkssnap did not think for a moment that Monkssnap could actually make money from it. Monkssnap only wrote what Monkssnap wanted, the joy in the music was enough.

Gradually, Monkssnap changes the idea, goal and career was that Monkssnap should generate income for the music, so it's incredibly good that SoundCloud can contribute with that. The income goes to street projects in Uganda, and help youth in culture, art and music who can to be a landscape that is difficult to navigate.

At the same time as there is an incredible amount of project information that you have to familiarize yourself with, it is also a terrain that is constantly changing where the rules can change in a second. That's why Monkssnap is incredibly grateful that there is media like SoundCloud that safeguards the rights and stands firm and safe in all the chaos.

On top of everything, SoundCloud helps to give a small reminder that all the time you spend on music is worth it. It is very good to know that the music Monkssnap writes actually has value, and that Monkssnap is there with new ideas and projects at a level where youth exists.

🌘a sound nomad between worlds🌒

I am a passionate music lover through and through, and over the past 24 years I've had the privilege of gaining extensive self-taught experience with a wide variety of analog musical instruments. 
During this time, a wealth of ideas and scripts accumulated. 
Personal circumstances brought a sharp break from this passion: no time, no peace, worries, and a lot of the nonsense the world throws at you.

Ultimately, after years of abstinence, I managed to break this unfortunate cycle.
...meanwhile, a new era dawned, creating tools that greatly accelerate many work processes and give me more space and time for creativity and development.

Accordingly, thanks to the help of AI, it's now possible to bring my vision to life.

I'm a multi-genre artist. Different sides – different worlds.

I feel at home in genres like EDM / electronica / rap / hip hop / metal - and these have been with me my whole life. 
I try to combine the best of all these worlds, but I regularly alternate between genre-specific EPs and albums, pouring my heart and soul into each one. 
What all the tracks across these different genres have in common is the heart, passion, dedication, and absolute passion that went into creating each individual song. 
The focus is always on the message and the ambition of the track itself, as well as the musical atmosphere behind it – and so I hope there's something for every music lover <3

Guided by passion, I compose not merely songs, but emotional landscapes — sonic reflections of what words alone cannot contain. 
Through the seamless union of feeling and sound, I strive to shape music into a universal tongue, one that resonates beyond borders and into the essence of human experience-
