Consciousness of death & finitude is the unanswerable human ache that gives rise to and permeates so much art. This illuminates yet another failure inherent in AI "art" - the attempt to evade death with illusions of infinity and plenty.

New music coming on the first day of winter.

Narrative of waiting to "be discovered" as an artist is a deadly one. I ingested the mythology as a young person, then spent periods of my life feeling like a doomed failure. It slowly cracked for me - the narrative is a poisonous fairy tale. It sells well & is ultimately misleading & disempowering.

Between visual art and sonic experiments, Avi C. Engel's album 'Nocturne' weaves together ancient sounds, field recordings, and poetry into music that demands its own imaginary cinema. Ancient Strings Play Phantom Films — Avi C. Engel's Musical World:

Pym, just woken from a nap. #guineapig

Step aside Chipmunks- I'm releasing my first Christmas album this year.

A raven (maybe the same one) flew past my window & let out a full-throated croak as I was working on music yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't actively recording at the time.

six of these should still work ✨ (not sure which six, you'll have to troubleshoot)

Something about AI generated art that is tragically asinine is how it is end-result focused, & eliminates the messy *living* process of making art. The indescribably absorbing, embodied experience of entering a flow state is not something any of these energy guzzling thieving tools can touch.

Solstice release coming...on the winter solstice :) A mostly improvised collection of pieces for busted keyboard, guitar, chalumeau, percussion, gudok, & a bit of vox. Follow me on Bandcamp for updates 🖤 aviengel.bandcamp.com #independentartist #experimentalmusic #postambient #folknoir #diyordie

"There is a great deal of unmapped country within us which would have to be taken into account in an explanation of our gusts and storms" - George Eliot

bought a really crappy busted keyboard on kijiji, & you would not believe how much mileage I'm getting out of it for my new recording - or maybe you would, considering I used a wooden wine trunk I found in the street for percussion on numerous albums 😂

I went to a prominent arts high school where I was told by one teacher that the music I was writing was as irrelevant to their agenda as if I had gone there to play hockey, & by another that one day I could be a busker in the subway (respect for buskers! her comment was not delivered kindly)

Currently mixing in a gorgeously gnarly synth part by @tsinderash.bsky.social that they recorded for my new song called "For Mary Shelley." I don't like picking favourites, but the new project I'm working on feels special to me.

@lowenergyliving.bsky.social souped up/refurbished my formerly basic & low-end ribbon mic, and now it is absolutely dreamy. I've recorded 3 songs with it already. I'll say it again: if you have gear that needs repairing or tweaking, he is the person to approach!

I think the most horrifying & off-the-wall film I've seen this year was Big River Man. I told a friend who does cold dips in Lake Ontario about the premise (he swims the Amazon River), & she looked completely horrified. Watch at your own peril.

Attn: goths, goth adjacent people, people who like to wear black t-shirts with original art on them

To make space & make way for new things, I've marked down the price of this screen-printed t-shirt, which features my album art for "A New Skin" (download included when you purchase a shirt) aviengel.bandcamp.com/merch/a-new-...

"Music that burrows itself slowly down into your bones and nestles there" Mote reviewed by Valerie Polichar in @spectrumculture.bsky.social ✨ spectrumculture.com/2025/10/05/a...

Mote reviewed in @atthebarrier.bsky.social atthebarrier.com/2025/10/14/a...

It's become fringe to actually purchase music. I encourage you to be more fringe, if you want music to survive as an art form & for people not born into wealthy/well-connected families to also pursue their calling as artists

Baked a vegan pistachio rosewater cake yesterday for my partner's birthday. Turned out not at all as I expected, but still nice ⚘

I reviewed the latest from @aviengel.bsky.social for @spectrumculture.bsky.social — and I recommend a listen!

a touching review someone just left for one of my albums: "Your music is like the waves of the sea. It calms me down."
