About

Hello there, I’m Zane, a visual artist based at 1.3521° N, 103.8198° E, exploring the worlds of design, photography, videography, and writing.

SHDW emerged from a quiet thought: light and shadows are inseparable. In their interplay, darkness, with its enigmatic allure, unveils itself slowly and almost imperceptibly. Shadow is the counterpart to my other digital space, KWZN Observatory, though it now lingers in the slow aftermath of its half-life. Here, I venture further—into reflections carved from the depths of my musings.

Contact

If a sudden surge of adrenaline compels you to have a meaningful conversation, or if you’ve found a stray typo, a glitch in the matrix, or a crack in the world’s seemingly smooth surface, please leave a message. I’d love to hear from you, like a note slipped under a door in the still of the night.

Shadow, a static website living on GitHub, is built with Hugo (v0.145.0) and deployed via Cloudflare Pages (updated 2025-04-02, 14:41).

This privacy-respecting website is hosted green and has a carbon rating of A, consuming less energy than most webpages adrift in the vast expanse of the Internet.

I mostly draft in Obsidian, shape those words using Ulysses or MarkEdit, code in Nova and VS Code, and edit images in Photoshop and Lightroom. Inspiration often finds me in the quiet rhythm of a running shower, where ideas rise like steam, suspended in the stillness of time.
