NEVER IN SEASON, ALWAYS ON TIME

Now pivoting to literary and speculative fiction, Adriel is living in Amsterdam writing his debut novel entitled Miku Is Missing, a literary dark-romance about synchronicity, archetypal tension, and the hidden threads and patterns that connect human lives.

He also takes pictures.

As Spirit Cycles, Adriel mixes field recordings with synth-produced noise and undisciplined rhythms.

BUILDING THE PRACTICE

Going fast while moving slow

Using ten years of experience as a technical writer, Adriel has decided to follow his creative instincts and build his practice as an author. His first novel, and this website, including the music and photography, and the upcoming newsletter, are now in convergence. From disparate events into a resonance that echoes in stillness: an ecosystem of experiences.

All text, photography, music, video, and site design are created by hand by R. Adriel Vasquez, with AI assistance (Mistral, Lumo) restricted to backend metadata.
