Writing poems and turning them into songs and videos with AI.
Building the world of Dead Internet Poets.

Official Music Video from a single in my latest album.

Have you ever heard of a Freudian slip?

It's when you unintentionally say something that supposedly reveals what you're really thinking.

Free writing kind of does something similar.

The free association of ideas and words that eventually bubble up to the surface, where all sorts of imagery and emotions just - surprise you.

That's what happened to me while writing the lyrics of this song.

It was originally a free verse poem where I just let it lead me to wherever it wanted to go.

Billy Collins, in one of his Masterclass lectures said -

the goal of writing is to surprise oneself, arguing that if the poet is not surprised, the reader will not be either.

He advises against trying to fully understand your theme before you start writing, as this kills the magic and prevents the "sudden slip down the rabbit hole" that makes poetry exciting.

In my case, just for the heck and the challenge of it, I decided to make a poem out of the very first thing that I saw - a simmering pot of water.

And boy, I was surprised where that led me.

I don't know if my visuals could match what Billy advises here, but during the process of making music videos, I don't come in with a structured plan. I just let the music and the emotions lead me down rabbit holes.

Anyway, ramble over. Full album out on all streaming platforms on May 18, 2026. Hope you enjoy!

Trying out some editorial design for carousels/reels. Maybe I'll turn it into a music video, too...

@chrisfirst @shikoba_86 @krea_ai Would love to have a chance to use this!

@sophia14_14 I can relate.

Lately, Suno has felt like a gacha game to me. I've lost confidence in creating again after numerous failed attempts.

I hope you break out of your rut.

@AethrMusik @x_lovergrl_x @mirrorizeai Just looked around and looks cool. I like their vision. Did you get the chance to use their image models? Thoughts?

[Louis Ponce @LouisPonce87]

@AethrMusik @x_lovergrl_x @mirrorizeai Oh sh*t. You made that too? Time to check it out.

@TheCinesthetic Still my favourite horror movie.

I remember the ghost scene at night literally had me paralyzed in fear

[Louis Ponce @LouisPonce87]

@monimoriah Good take! What about one track a week?
And batches of 4-6 singles could be released like an EP?

@1say1say1say This takes me back and made me feel a certain way.

AI is a tool. Film is the medium. Taste steers the tool.

@entrepeneur4lyf @AethrMusik @StillRemains @thevervepipe I feel like I'm being gaslit lol. Must be going crazy. Anyway, 200 is still nothing to scoff at. Did you write all your songs?

[Louis Ponce @LouisPonce87]

@entrepeneur4lyf I know right? How does this feel different than what DJs do? Ultimately, it's about taste

My friend (we’re friends now, right?), do the work, show your work.

Listen. Because deep inside, you know you want to be listened to, and people want to feel heard. To feel seen.

I know I do.

Which is why I made my album.

I want others to feel what I felt when listening to my music. And I want to share this experience with you.

Won’t you share me yours too? Show me your work.
