I’m going to be honest. This was one of the most difficult videos I’ve ever written or edited because I’m trying to describe a particular sensation that I get when I wake up some mornings. This is a video about that sensation, how the game Soma started it, and how a few other pieces of media made it worse and then… somehow helped me come to peace with it. It’s taken me about a year to finally write this and that’s because it is deeply personal and esoteric. I hope you enjoy it.
