I love this girl — her name is Ter, she’s Spanish and an architect.
A few years ago, she started making videos that evolved into a very intimate and meticulous form of knowledge sharing.
She doesn’t upload much anymore.
In this video (link above), she dives into the architecture of Spirited Away and offers illustrated blueprints of the hotel where the story takes place — as a free download.

Tabaimo is a Japanese video installation artist and her graphic, surrealist work is very hard to find anywhere online. Which I found out by emailing her representative galleries. But here is a niche example

Ishigami is one of my favorite architects and I recommend you check him out. I love these conceptual drawings he makes using plants define the architectural space. Two of my favorite buildings of his are the Kanagawa Institute of Technology Plaza and Workshop.
I think about the workshop a lot. Columns of varying sizes scatter through the open space on seemingly random points, inspired by constellations. Because the columns are stark white, from the pictures I've seen, it reads as a redactive collage where these thin bars remove parts of the image. The columns define spaces in the otherwise wall-less structure. The plaza similarly carves out spaces, but by using light and undulating surfaces.

In times when solitude needs to be exorcised, drawing can be a ritual of release.

I first heard Combat Baby from this very album in my late teens — it carried a weight of melancholy that pulled me in from the sadness itself.
That urge to dance even when your heart is hanging by the last thread.
I stumbled back into it this week.
Listening to it now, I recognize it as a defining reference in my own sound. The use of piano and other keys alongside raw, unprocessed synths puts all the weight on the harmony — a harmony that forces me to leave behind that old world underground. You won’t find it anymore.

“I am in the world, I am of the world, I act within the world.
I am in myself, of myself, I act through myself.
Separate and united all at once, a tiny cog in a cosmic machine, I collaborate, I receive and give, I absorb and distribute.
My nakedness is total: no principle guides me, no law but nature’s.
If I say ‘I am,’ it is because, in the infinite multiplicity of beings and things, I have found my place — in the world and in myself; it is one and the same. I no longer need to search. I hold no image of myself. I am where I belong. Here, and everywhere, willingly bound.
I dwell in every speck of dust, every territory, every river’s path, every star, every part of my body. And how could I not respect the world, my bones and flesh? None of this matter is mine — it was lent to me, only for a fragment of time. And I revere it, for it is my temple, the temple where the unthinkable God resides. Spirit is matter, and matter is spirit. The universe is constantly birthing and bursting, and at its center, where I kneel, I am.
When I say ‘I am there,’ I mean ‘within that’ which sustains all life — the endless source of energy flowing through my mind, heart, and sex. Energies of sublime purity emerge from me, cleansing the world. I return fragrance to the air, sweetness to the river, fertility to the earth, and life to all oceans. There is no place in the cosmos where I am absent.
In every instant, I remain in the present. Neither past nor future binds me. No regrets, no plans. Constant, loyal to my place, I receive and I give. And when I say ‘I belong to the world and to myself,’ it means I give myself fully, uprooting even the darkest seed of judgment. I do not judge. I love, and I serve.
I do not separate, not even by a hair’s breadth. I belong — which means I venerate, I obey. That is why I am naked: naked like a tree, a bird, or a cloud. I am of my body, my flesh, and my blood. Being, I cannot abandon or be abandoned by myself. How could I not love what so lovingly possesses me?
As I give myself to the earth, I give myself to my flesh and bones. As I trust the oceans, I trust my blood. As I yield to the air, I yield to my skin. As I surrender to the stars, I surrender to my hair. And full of this love — love of a slave, radiant — I act upon the world and upon myself.
To act is to flow with the world: clearing obstacles, transmitting energy from beyond the stars. I enrich, I purify, I nourish, I understand, I cleanse. I act upon myself too: I open to all infinities, letting the breath of the gods pass through every pore of my blood. I allow all mysteries to pass through me. And in the center of my now-infinite womb, I receive — and birth — the totality of light.”
