Have you ever felt like your cell phone is controlling your life, or that of someone you know? I’m sure you’ve asked yourself, “Why is it so addictive?” and then just scrolled once again. In this episode, dive into the new yet familiar world of TikTok as three Stanford students uncover the dangers of data collection, addiction, and algorithmic manipulation, shedding light on the impact of social media on privacy and mental well-being.

Data Diaries: Unpacking the TikTok Algorithm and Data Practices

Doomscrolling has taken away our generation's attention and motivation in everyday activities. Younger audiences are being exposed to the media too soon and it is having an affect on their mental health. On the other hand, there are many good things social media has given us. In this episode of Mind The Influence, we explore the affects of having apps like TikTok, and how easy it is to be sucked in. Is social media worth it?

Descending Into Doom: Navigating 21st Century Scrolling

Guilty Pleasures - League of Legends, Eternal Return, Doomscrolling

Experimenting with a dobro that my wife gave me. Thanks honey! Made this swampy blues number with lyrics that reflect some of the mood after the election. Trying to limit the doomscrolling.

checking for the signs

I thought I was into a long sonic hut / creative block, so it's a bit surprising that this song came together. It's basically a patchwork of disparate ideas.

The opening sample (and then background drone) is, believe it or not, from Meghan Trainor's "Made You Look" - specifically the section where her backing vocals sing "Gucci on". My intention was to make a whole song out of it. This idea never took off. I even downloaded PaulXStretch to mess with it but it sounded way too easy and uninteresting. But amongst all the fails I found a fun way to endlessly stretch minute portions of the sample using Reason's graintable synth and developed the technique a bit more here.

Few weeks go by, with me unwilling to fool around with the OP-1, or the guitar, or the piano, and feeling overwhelmed by all that can be done in a DAW, I remembered how expressive the opening songs from the Castlevania games were and started looking at YouTube videos about 8-bit sound synthesis. I was surprised to find out that, obviously, it was all basic waveforms and very basic modulation. So I experimented with recreating them with Reason's most basic synths and then realized it would go well with the endlessly stretched Megan Trainor sample. The "NES synth line" is probably my second recorded take of improvised playing in the 30 minutes I get when the kid is being put to bed.

Finally, the title popped into my mind while I was doomscrolling on the computer. I had an instant of awareness of how unaware I was, how distant from real life my mind was drifting - being there, but elsewhere.

This track was finished on September 11, 2024. Mastered in March 2025.

Is the Media Making Us Sick? | Karel Cast 25-104

Is the media destroying your mental health? You’re not alone. In this eye-opening episode, Karel shares a personal message from a friend who’s had enough of the emotional rollercoaster brought on by news and social media. From the heartbreaking images in Gaza to the chaos of Trump and MAGA, it seems like everything is a crisis. And the curated “perfect lives” on social media? Just salt in the wound.

We dive into how the news cycle, endless bad headlines, and performative social posts are becoming a silent health crisis for millions. But how do we stay informed without losing our sanity? Can we break free from the manipulation?

Plus, Karel gives his take on how to reclaim your peace without disconnecting completely.
