Creative Corner: The Ghost in the Machine

Creative Corner: The Ghost in the Machine

By Seán O’Donnell Great sheets of light cascaded through the skylights above and bounced around the spacious interior, refracting off the sleek silver surfaces which coated almost every inch of the facility.

Creative Corner: Perspective

Adulthood: Uncertainty, anxiety, social media and the quest for Y

By Ikenna Anyabuike It was freezing. The frost lay haphazardly adorned across the street, covering entire buildings and pathways with its crystal sheen, but completely sparing others. It was as if a drunken painter had begun to create his masterpiece but then promptly passed out before he even got close to finishing it. The sharp chimes of my chattering teeth echoed down … [Read more...] about Adulthood: Uncertainty, anxiety, social media and the quest for Y
