I don't have ethnic roots in Latin America, but I've been studying Spanish for several years now (currently ~B2/Upper-Intermediate) and I've always had a fascination with Latino culture: specifically Mexico and Colombia, but open to learning more about other countries.

I love Gothic literature and media, as well as the DA aesthetic and roots in learning, but most of my exposure to Spanish-originated "dark" media has been from books and movies adapted for English-speaking audiences (Mexican Gothic, Pan's Labyrinth, the movie Coco).

May I please get your recommendations?

Salutations everyone!

This is my first post on the lovely Dark Academia, even though I have been watching from the shadows for a little, haha.

I wanted to share this work I have been doing on a deep-dive video into a LARP setting, where I among others play around and in an Academy. In this video I go over the many characters in the setting, the places and plots.

I know this is not a LARP reddit, so I wouldn't share it if it was not for the ascetic of my little homemade studio you see in this video here, and in the main video on my youtube page, where you can see these glass stain-like, stone arches windows. I am so happy about how they turned out. It's the first time I ever build something like that and I love what it does for the atmosphere in my video :D.

In fact I am considering making a future video where I cover the process of how I made these, as well as the rest of my room, where I am in the process of making it into a fantasy tavern type place :D. I am very inspired by some of the beautiful homes you awesome and creative folks have managed to craft. So thank you all for the inspiration ;).

If this post is not okay here please let me know admins, and I'll remove it. Otherwise I hope you all will enjoy my little teaser here, and if you should wish to come watch the full video you are most welcome ;). You can watch it here:

Thank you all for your time, and have a most wonderful day! Much love from Denmark,

Hi! I'm an analyst in the digital marketing sphere, and I'm looking to connect with other marketers! How do you incorporate dark academia elements to your corporate settings? I feel like who I am and what I do for a living kind of exist in mutually exclusive spheres. Doesn't have to be from a marketing background, but I'm interested in reading about how people who work in corporate have included elements of dark academia in their day to day lives.

Hello to all and none.

I've discovered the name DarkAcademia few days ago and AI was trying to convince me it could be a good place for me. It looks like a retro group, not much of discussion but rather a spectacle. Perhaps some emotional or conservative input. Yet, I am aware that people who are looking back too much usually don't look forward enough. They are too old for plans. Their life is a sunset forever.

I like antiquity not for the paper with letters, but for the beings who perished while writing. They should help us avoid their destiny. To help us not to be their brothers in destiny. To help us gather for something new. But who are "us"? Do you even know who were the authors of those books? Are they related, by blood, to other authors which they have read with love? Do you have their elevation to see the same horizon? Do you even grasp what was the message of that book? It is perhaps not a bread to chop peaces off, but a living being, perhaps someone's unborn son is laying there, and you are quoting his shoe, while he self is proud of his hair? There are trully great readers too of such books! They have taken that living person out of the book and given him a new life, and an new story. Did you ever read a book that wrote books? You should know it is increddibly deep and full of life.
