A few weeks ago, my friend told me about an app they were using to track their sleeping habits: Pokémon Sleep. When they first mentioned it, I found it strange. Why would Pokémon care about sleep schedules? So, I decided to try this mobile game for a night.

Marking the dawn of a new era, the 20-year-old artist sheds the bubblegum neon aesthetic that defined her earlier work, stepping into a darker, rawer, and more nihilistic vision—one that embraces chaos rather than sugarcoating it. 

The intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and music production has sparked both excitement and concern within the music industry. Recent developments in machine learning have empowered individuals to recreate the sounds of their musical idols from the comfort of their own homes, leading to a proliferation of AI-generated music and innovative tools.

It was at the tender age of 12 that my mom showed me her favorite movies, mostly old thrillers. My first was Rear Window, which of course we followed with North by Northwest, Charade, To Catch a Thief, Wait Until Dark, among others. Some were better than others, some aged poorly, but none were as good as Rear Window, which is a favorite to this day.

If I am honest, though, the Golden Age of Hollywood doesn’t do much for me anymore. The women are so pretty, so classically feminine. The men are strong, rough, and indistinguishable from each other. I will always love Rear Window, even as I see how far from Grace Kelly and James Stewart, and realize it doesn’t love me back.
