My love is suspended
Throughout the pluriverse for better or worse
I still dream the dream

The dawn of one world
Is the dusk of another perplexity is the mother
Of the eternal scheme

If this is accurate, WeTransfer is unusable for professional creative work. Would violate most work-for-hire contracts to share copyrighted material with a third party like this.

fundraising for Media Before Media exhibit Our big news for the summer… It’s a shame that “we are excited to announce” has become such an online cliché – especially since we are actually excited that the pop-up…
