I finally brought together my love for content design, data visualization, and extreme metal.
Third World Thunder is an archive of Pakistan's extreme metal underground. At the core are the dispatches - long-form pieces I'm writing from interviews. Around them are eight interactive ways into the scene: timelines, a map of who played with who, every release ever made, the whole thing rendered as a night sky.
First two dispatches are up here:

Forgot to share this here but I've started publishing band histories on Third World Thunder. First up is a one of Pakistan's first death metal supergroups Hell Dormant. One album and they were done. Full album uploaded too. Read here: thirdworldthunder.shaheryarp…

Over the past month, some of you reported Claude Code's quality had slipped. We investigated, and published a post-mortem on the three issues we found.
All are fixed in v2.1.116+ and we’ve reset usage limits for all subscribers.
