Forever Almost, Season 2, Director's Cut

One man. Five episodes. Countless sharp images of Steve.

This is the Forever Almost: Season 2 – Director’s Cut — all five episodes stitched into one relentless, autofocus betrayed descent through mirrorless misery, JPEG shame, and one gallery show that should never have happened.

If you’ve seen the episodes before: yes, this cut includes a new final scene, or does it? And no, I still haven’t figured out why my camera keeps prioritizing Steve over everything else.

Whether you’re here to watch me teach a workshop I wasn’t qualified for, hang failures in an art gallery, or attend a masterclass taught by Dave (yes, that Dave)… welcome back.
