Author Benedetta Baldin<\/strong> – 24.7.2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Percussionist M. Shawn \u201cClown\u201d Crahan of Slipknot<\/a><\/strong> has opened a new website at theclown.com<\/a>, as per theprp<\/a>. Additionally, a purportedly AI-assisted music video for the song \u201cUn Life<\/em>\u201d from the project O\u2019 Day Monster<\/strong>, which features Crahan, has recently surfaced online. The venture\u2019s website has been made available through odaymonster.ai<\/a>. Crahan has released a statament about this.<\/p>\n Welcome everyone, to the new home of all my artistic endeavors. If you\u2019ve been following me for a while, you know it\u2019s been a challenge to get the .com to a place where I feel I can contemplate, and present, all my creative memories caught with one brush \u2013 or several brushes combined. And yes, sometimes there\u2019s no brush that can express the deep inner self.<\/em><\/p>\n It\u2019s been difficult for me to share all these expressions of mine, mainly because of time. With that said, I believe I\u2019m at a crossing where my heart is telling me to share the life I have lived. It\u2019s been an incredible journey so far, and I need to utilize some time and get busy now, to reveal all that has been hidden behind the curtain. Forms and brushes, like fingerpainting when I was young.<\/em><\/p>\n My mother and I shared the love of writing; she encouraged me to write exactly how I truly felt. And to revise, revise, revise so the work could be it\u2019s truest self. Then there\u2019s painting, drawing, performing, directing, producing, single frames, moving frames, Polaroids, scans, 3-D animation, AI images, coding, level creation for video games, recording my songs in Pro Tools, using plugins to expand my experience, exploring gear, connecting dots, and my newest path \u2013 modular synths controlled voltage, frequency, vibration and circuitry. There\u2019s much, much more to find and explore in the lane known as my life. It\u2019s time to grab it all, and move it to it\u2019s new home, here at the .com.<\/em><\/p>\n This is where you get the unedited me. The no-filtered me. The no-paraphrasing me; you\u2019ll get no lies from me. Just the racing thoughts of imagination that make their way to some sort of canvas or canvases, time-stamped and put here, in it\u2019s resting place.<\/em><\/p>\n As always, it\u2019s going to be a great while before it\u2019ll all be up, if indeed it can be put up. It takes a lot of work, but that\u2019s what\u2019s next \u2013 the time to explore all this together. I can\u2019t wait to go down this wormhole and share thoughts with you about vision and one\u2019s self, concentrated on output.<\/em><\/p>\n I was told once I was like a Renaissance artist, meaning I would do a little bit of all of it, and that\u2019s exactly what I\u2019ve done with my life. Make the love I have for art be the introduction to creating further interests. This has been my personal hobby to create, calculate, and then demand output. You can use all methods, old and new. I\u2019ve come to learn to utilize fear and misunderstanding to dig so deep within my own ability to conjure the scratch. To dream about shedding a tear because of the depth of the subconscious, and the ultimate need to then bring it to life \u2013 to feed the knowledge and hopefully set forth a possible understanding that brings lives together, or apart.<\/em><\/p>\n One last thing before I am done here. Check out my new project called\u00a0O\u2019 Day Monster\u00a0on the feature page here. I\u2019ve entered a time in my life where I wanted to create something I could conduct and drive, with words. I wanted to create the spaceship I could drive with my words.<\/em><\/p>\n I\u2019ve always wanted to have someone sing my words with the conviction that the subject matter demanded. Many close friends and I came together to help bring the battle of \u201cme against me\u201d to life. This has been my suffering, and salvation, my entire life. You know, the \u201cI\u2019m my own worst enemy\u201d kind of situation. I am very blessed to have several friends who believe in me, the music, and my words enough to bring all this new color to life to taste and smell. To hold and connect with.<\/em><\/p>\n Either way, the choice is yours. I just know I\u2019ve never had a choice \u2013 in the end, it just simply is me. And I want it to find those to whom it speaks, those who take something from it. I hope you enjoy this world I\u2019ve created. Maybe the feeling you get when you arrive is an internal feeling. One that feels like you\u2019ve been here before. Familiarity would be nice. So explore, and hopefully I\u2019ll see you somewhere here beneath all the shadows.<\/em><\/p>\n To all that helped bring my art, my vision, and my scratch to life: Thank you with all my heart. I hope you all enjoy what we have put together for you. It\u2019s not much yet, but it will keep expanding outwards \u2013 until it is no more.<\/em><\/p>\n Until then, \u2018Enjoy, thank you, and live your life\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n \n<\/p>\n
