Hey folks!

I’m having a strong urge lately to connect to themes of isolation and melancholy.

Anyone else enjoying this stuff?

Here’s a list of some that I enjoy. Also, the strongest imagery I have for this is a little island on another planet, with meadows, a little wooden house, pools of water, etc. while seeing the star-studded universe above.

Here are some examples I enjoy

Ozamu Dazai’s No Longer Human
Sandman TV show
Angus & Julia Stone - The Devil’s Tears
The Eddie Vedder Album for Into the Wild
Everything about Invoker in the animated DotA movie
Boy - Fit Back In

Please share anything around these themes you enjoy, or your thoughts in general :)

(will update my list, if anything else comes to mind)

Thank you!

    David Lynch’s Eraserhead immediately popped into mind. There is very little dialog and the main character is almost entirely wrapped in his own thoughts. Also just a very strange and surreal movie. It feels almost like you’re not meant to see it.
