Time.raw

Time.raw moves through two cycles of human existence. It opens with the sweetness of familiar tropes: a world that feels predictable, comforting, and easy to escape into. Beneath that surface, buried emotions begin to rise. The voices we try to silence and the shields we once needed make it difficult to know ourselves. Running toward another horizon cannot resolve what we carry. The turning point is the shedding of an old identity. We can thank the self that helped us survive without asking it to govern the rest of our lives. Inflection makes room for choice; Deliriously Optimistic brings the first cycle to self-acceptance, joy, and a belief in our own place in the world. The second cycle turns outward. Rurik finds acceptance through another person’s love. Homesick for a Somewhere holds the ache of life’s possibilities. Mine Mine Mine embraces all-consuming connection, before Through the Vale meets the grief that love makes possible. Tribute to Kronos closes the circle: every self, every possibility, every love exists within time. On the cover, a woman is embraced by the red thread of time. Fragments of her past and future selves surround her; echoes of the songs inhabit the same world. The scroll journey unfolds those individual worlds from the whole.
