Mega Man February 2021

hey say when you die, you stay on earth for T the next forty days, moving, wandering, and trying to make sense of the afterlife. You move as if you are still in your physical body, still in the space you know as home, still trying to communicate with your loved ones and friends only this time they can’t see you and touch you. They say when you die, you can only talk to people in their dreams. They say you are lost and need help to transmute to the next plane where no time, pain, fear or anxiety is promised. For the people left behind, the experience of moving on is very difficult. It begins with a state of shock, then denial, then anger and you know the rest.…

There are some things that will always be worth the wait. Personally, it’s the joy of conducting an interview in person (with safety regulations observed) after what seems like an eternity of deciphering contexts lost in virtual translation. For Dr. Z Teo, it’s the visibly-sculpted jawline after a 30-minute Aivee Evoke session. For the rest of those on location, it’s the sight of the Dr. Z’s cuddly canines Oslo, Tokyo, and Skye as they frolocked around the patio. Now, more than ever, conversations relating to time echoes throughout online conversations. The never-ending question of “When will this end?” still looms in our senses.

If someone were to ask you “Who are you?” I would bet my bottom dollar that you will answer with your name. It’s an instinctual response–our name defines who we are. And while it doesn’t literally define us in the same way a word is defined in a dictionary, it gives us enough individuality amid a general populace. I still remember the first time I was introduced to Dr. Z Teo, not in person, but by name. Initially, I was intrigued. “That’s a name you don’t hear often, or probably ever,” I immediately told myself. It could be a nickname, or maybe an alias just like hip-hop legend Jay-Z (who, at that time, was the only other “Z” I could think of). I shouldn’t have been surprised given that I,…
