Shihan Kanungo
Hello there! I’m Shihan—thanks for stopping by. I live in Palo Alto, CA. I am deeply fascinated by mathematics, physics, language, and music. I play the violin, compose with my MPK Mini Plus, and have a music taste that defies genre (and occasionally logic). When I’m not actively immersed in one of these pursuits, there’s a good chance I’m sitting very still, appearing contemplative—while secretly daydreaming about my next snack. I aspire to nurture my passions and use them to make meaningful contributions to the world ... ideally with a bit of joy, curiosity, and the occasional pastry along the way.
Recent news: Taylor Swift announces her next era: 'The Life of a Showgirl'. The album has 12 tracks — a nod to this being her 12th album — and includes a cover of George Michael’s 1987 song Father Figure. It also includes a collaboration with Sabrina Carpenter on the title track. It will be released 3 October.
Currently reading: Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami.
Recent Movies: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009 d. Wes Anderson), and Coda (2021 d. Sian Heder)
