A Portfolio by Stefan Walczak

Poems of My Past Hardcover Now Available! For those who enjoy a thoughtful exploration of the mind in the form of poetry, my debut poetry collection, Poems of My Past, is now available with full-color artwork in hardcover , and a black and white version in paperback ! This realization is a dream come true and brings my vision full circle, as my original idea for my poetry was to make it as interactive and immersive as possible. It’s a deep collection of existential hope and dread, which after just about a decade, holds up.

I plan to do many more deep dives in the coming months and years. Cheers! https://www.airdriftsignals.com/2023/09/pink-floyd-dark-side-of-the-moon-50th-analysis-and-review.html

These projects don’t have an easy classification for me for one of my header links, so these various projects may end up as a singular post on my Welcome page. One of these projects was a fan music video I made using a Moody Blues song (really an incredible and underrated group) and the 2019 horror film by Robert Eggers, The Lighthouse. Around the time my wife and I first saw this film we were getting into the early work of this musical group, an all-time favorite of my father’s, and whose musical taste I was finally coming around to and appreciating in a big way. As I heard this chilling tale of a lonely man in Melancholy Man, visions of The Lighthouse would never leave my imagination. These visions bugged me so much so that I had no choice in the matter and su...
