Rock, Paper, Cynic

Rock, Paper, Cynic writes geek-powered songs for people who are bad at being grown-ups. His music covers serious topics like like having a crush on the National Security Agency or taking Netflix as a monogamous lover.

His songs are mostly funny, but sometimes a little wistful, and sounds like what might happen if Jonathan Coulton, the Barenaked Ladies and John K. Samson climbed into a van and weren’t allowed out until they wrote something together. I mean it, guys, I have the key and I’ll let you out as soon as you finish the bridge.

He also writes a weekly webcomic with the same sense of humour over at www.rockpapercynic.com.

This was the real gem on the hard drive of lost music video footage I found the other week. Tons of convention footage from 2016 I shot for a Geeks in Love video. Until I heard the familiar sound of 10,000 ecstatic geeks wandering a wonderland of nerd treasures, I didn't realize just how much I missed conventions. This pandemic sucks. Isolation sucks. But let's hold the line a little longer until it's safe to gather again and celebrate the things we love.

So here's "Geeks in Love" ft. The Doubleclicks and various attendees of Toronto Comic Con: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7dP1...

5 years ago I shot a music video for Hello NSA that I lost the footage for—until recently! So now, 5 years too late to be relevant or useful, please enjoy this music video I shot in my apartment's creepy basement! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1z7Nm...
