existentia. was inspired by ALYH ABOVE's daily audio journaling practice, which serves to ground their expression. snippets from these journals are used to prompt and support each episode's theme. episodes are numbered based on how many days the artist has been alive at the time of release, as a nod to queer timekeeping and the format of a diary entry.
