THE ART OF THE LAST OF US by Naughty Dog and Dark Horse (book flip through by Borislav Vakinov)

Last year (in June) I bought the art book for the first THE LAST OF US game and I wanted to make a nicely filmed and edited flip through with the soundtrack of the game since then. I think this has to be simply the BEST art book ever released by Dark Horse and it's definitely a purchase that I am most happy about. What more is there to say? ...well apart from the quite obvious fact that THE LAST OF US is an example of an immersive and emotional video game experience done the proper way in every possible respect, and that it has a very, very, very special place in my heart. For goodness' sake, I even bought a used PlayStation 3 last year just to be able to play this great game!! I hope you'll enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed glancing and reading through the pages of this masterpiece of an art book for hours and hours on end. I absolutely love and held in a very high place THE LAST OF US and everything is has to offer me as a gamer and as someone who appeciates quality art, video games and experiences. It's certainly one of my favorite video games of all times and I say this in all seriousness.

You can get a brand new or used copy on Amazon: (mine is used, but it's in pretty good shape as you can see)

HERESY & METAPHYSICS: A COMPENDIUM OF THOUGHTS AND IDEAS ABOUT MAGIC, PHILOSOPHY, ART, IDENTITY, THE OCCULT AND THE DEEPLY WEIRD SIDE OF EXISTENCE (Version II)

Howdy! This is the second version of my book. This version had some pretty obvious mistakes in the text of the back cover that needed fixing. The current and third version that’s on sale on Amazon is the (I hope) final update for the moment. I do not plan to make any other edits, updates or corrections anymore. Perhaps I will make and publish a second expanded edition sometime in 2021. This is how my book looks, both on the outside and on the inside. I have make some subtsantial adjustments in the text on the back cover and some design tweaks on the front cover. For the overall look, I added a border on each corner and tried my VERY best to make it look nice and slick. Also there were some minor mistakes that needed fixing in each chapter of the book and some other things I felt that needed to be fixed. I am obviously quite pleased with the final product. You can support me directly if you buy my book. Thank you!

The Quarantine Zone (2 Years Later): Myself in April, 2021

A man came by out of the dark.

Came into the light like a spark.

He said he was worried he might die.

I said don’t worry, time passes by.

Worry you will, worry you might.

Worry enough to spoil your night.

But there is only life that you will know.

Don’t worry my friend look down below.

Today is time, tomorrow is not.

Enjoy today, that’s all you’ve got!

HERESY & METAPHYSICS SECOND EDITION COMING IN JUNE!

Howdy ya’ll!

Just a quick update to my readers. For a few months now, I have been working on a fully revised, updated and expanded second editon of my book, “HERESY & METAPHYSICS” . The new edition will include new cover design and artwork, new fonts, new and updated format, new subsections in each chapter, and a few extended chapters, couple of new appendices, fully revised index, updated names of some of the chapters, more images and photos, and of course the most important part is, that it will be a Hardcover edition!! Amazon were kind enough to offer me this format, and I am quite happy to make my best to give my readers (and myself) the best edtion possible! No rushing and no bad editing this time. I am carefully polishing everything, and I am enjoying the work on this edition, and I hope everyone will do as well when I am ready to release it to the public. Much love, stay safe out there and look after yourselves!

- Yours truly

I have mentioned this in a review I did last month for the video game THE LAST OF US. You can watch it below.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021!!!

It's been a challenging, hard, ruthless, difficult, but nevertheless a very rewarding and exciting year for me personally. I have endured much, but I have also learned much. I have also published my first book, and I consider that a truly special, precious and important deed. There are always ups and downs, positive and negative days, but such is the nature of existence. It's always been like that, not doubt about it. That is the cycle of life and death, birth and rebirth, chaos and order, darkness and light, and so on and so forth. I don't think I have any regrets for 2020, and I hope the new 2021 will bring me, my family, and everyone else in the world, very good health, strong spirits and everlasting joy and creativity for new and exciting projects and adventures. We shall endure!

Best wishes from the Dungeons of Bulgaria! I wish you all the best, excellent health, lots of loot and many, many exciting quests and adventures to come! May your blades and staves never fail! Cheers ya'll and stay safe!

A VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE!!

I have fixed some pretty obvious mistakes in the text of my book, and in the back of the cover. I have also changed some of the fonts and size in the main title and added a few details here and there in the cover. Some positioning of the titles, logos, images, photos and the text were also very much improved in this upated version of the cover art as a whole. The most important thing I did, is to LOWER THE PRICE substantially. I decreased it from $ 11.00 to $ 8.99 (pretty reasonable I think for such book) and in the UK that would be, £ 6.66 (yes, I know what you’re thinking). The Euro equivalent all around the other Amazon markets in Europe is now about 7.00 Euros. So in other words, it's dirt cheap and super affordable! Can't argue with that, eh? You have no possible excuse now, but to get it for Christmas! :) Oh yeah, and I have also added a few paragraphs and images in the text of the book, and now the pages have increased from 163 to 165. That's all I can give for the moment. My eyes are not detecting any other major mistakes after re-reading the text and checking the cover. If you find any after you read it, please feel free to report them to me so that I can fix them. As I said in my previous comment, I will definitely make a detailed flick through on every single page (from start to finish) and show how the cover looks, the actual binding and all the rest of these things when I receive a copy of my book. I may even read you a bed time story if you like. So thank you all again folks and I do hope you a nice trip with the book! It really, really, really, really means a lot to hear from you. Cheers lads and lasses!

Synopsis:

In his book, HERESY & METAPHYSICS, Borislav Vakinov explores and discusses; philosophical, anthropological, occult, existential, mythological and polytheistic themes and concepts. Thematically, the core of the book deals with pre-Christian, Pagan practices and beliefs and also delves into Fortean topics such as; the paranormal, the super natural, ritual magic and mysticism which roots and foundations are firmly based in prehistory, classical antiquity, as well as in more current times. HERESY & METAPHYSICS rides on the towering wave of probability, chaos magic and high weirdness. With these tools in hand, the author aims at the highest target in order to unravel and “excavate” the mystical, the paranormal and the super natural, and to present them in a quite different perspective. A more down-to-earth snap shot, free of “new age” or materialist types of dogma and sugar-coated in mainstream and academic phraseology; in other words—THE HYPER UPDATE OF THE DECADE! HERESY & METAPHYSICS taps into archetypes, metaphors and subconscious models that hadn’t been properly discussed, developed and explored since the so-called “truth movement” began in Europe and North America in the early part of the decade after the events of 9/11. The book fuels the engine of creativity and peels off layer after layer of lies, deceit and fake promises of a better tomorrow, in a world where the mass media, the politicians, the world governments (the so-called “elites” behind the curtains), and the global corporations dictate how or whether we should have an authentic experience. Whether we should look for answers beyond the five-sense reality, or express ourselves as normal human beings. The time has come to embark on a solo magical journey through the fields, forests, mountains, suburban alleys and dark corners of our towns and native lands and put on the Wizard cloak of invisibility and grip in both hands the staff and the mighty sword of power in order to achieve highly concentrated and well-structured models for improving our lives.With the writing and the publication of Heresy & Metaphysics, the author’s inner most wish and desire is to take the reader on that lone ship in the middle of the ocean, where the captain strives to pull up the anchor and lift it up towards the unknown. In a completely unpretentious and unapologetic way, the book tries to push further ahead into new territories and break the thick blocks of stagnation and outdated spiritual and secular ideals, while steering the ship back into well-established grounds and visit old and familiar places. At the same time, the main quest of HERESY & METAPHYSICS is to deliver something deeply profound, practical, weird and authentic. Much of Borislav’s work concentrates on the world that is ignored by the mainstream and pop culture. Sometimes forgotten, obsolete or simply marginalized, it is a world of the unseen, of the hidden and of the unknown, that doesn’t fit into a thirty-second news media bite or a Facebook and Twitter feed.Borislav has spent the last ten years traveling across Europe and his native land, taking notes and documenting this world and now has a story to share. This is the beginning of his quest into the world of mystery & magic. THIS IS HIS FIRST PUBLISHED BOOK.

Seiðmannen - Hedenskap, Trolldom, og Folkeeventyr (2019) (Dungeon Synth, Pagan Ambient)

THIS IS NOT A CONCEPT ALBUM! JUST ENJOY THE JOURNEY!

ABOUT THE RELEASE

This demo consists of old and previously unreleased material that I made along the years (some of them are even from the past ten years, give or take), but never actually published them anywhere until now. It also includes new material, recently made tracks which are in the process to be realized as a fully fleshed debut album. More information and further details are to be added in due time. The full-length album will feature some tracks from this demo.

You can support me directly by buying my album here:

https://seidmannen.bandcamp.com/releases

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Seiðmannen does not promote or support any political, religious, (especially monotheistic) "patriotic", racist, dogmatic, or "new age" (Ásatrú, Wicca, Odinism, etc.) ideologies or movements. This project is a clear reflection of my personal life experiences and of a myriad of other metaphorical, esoteric and archetypal concepts. Above all, this project and the themes of the music contained in it are a homage to nature, solitude, paganism, creativity and a revolt against the sickness of modern life and the damage and the degeneracy that it inflicts upon the human psyche. It's a homage and a recognition of the animistic reality of everything that is the primeval offspring of nature. A historical tribute to the practices of heathenry of our ancestors and the believe and the veneration of land spirits, gods and goddesses and of the tribal philosophies and way of life of the people inhabiting their natives lands.

"At trúa á mátt sín ok megin"

Seiðmannen (In Torquay, England)

Shorter hair, no hats and no glasses! There ya have it! This is perhaps one of the more “rarest” shots of me and I remember that I was in a kind of a weird and thoughtful mood. We all have these moments in our lives, but very few decide to capture them in a photograph. This one is raw as it can get. I just took the photo while I was floating somewhere else. I like this one very much!

This photo is perhaps from 2016 or early 2017. As far as I remember, those were quite honestly very “spiritual” times in the thick book of my life. I was having difficult times to be honest with you. But alas, it all went away.

P.S. And yes, that is a Mortiis tattoo on my right arm. It’s old though. One of my first. I am a long, long time fan of his music and overall aesthetic.

Written in blood and sealed in death Bound by the ages, the tome of regret Fates will be sealed and swords will be met With the cold embrace of steel and flesh Eldritch beasts converge on the streets Of this ancient city, so beautiful and wild Veils of night, the tolling of bells Funeral march to the sound of the knell...
