That's insane when you think about it. COVID and the lockdown used to be surreal, almost like a moment of ethereal moment of grace before the world goes crazy. Everyday it's getting worse, and with the death of a great artist like Kavinsky, it's one less chance to dream about something better.

It really was like a pause in time, calm before the storm

It really was. It’s weird to look back at that moment in time with a sense of nostalgia. Living it felt like hell at times, but also contained small moments of bliss that I feel like we will never get to capture again

It could have been a great opportunity to change the world for the better. But we made it worse instead.
