A couple years ago, I took a break from blogging about “rugged menswear.” What had started as something vital and interesting for me suddenly became crowded with trendwatching düdes in their 20s sporting skinny jeans and retro mustaches. Many of my Tumblr friends have also moved on, making this a fairly lonely place for me these days.

However, I did take all that energy and throw it at my other passion: handmade electronic sound+vision machines. Those interested in this aspect of my life are welcome to visit me here: https://www.instagram.com/macumbista/
