I was in design school and needed an alias for something (honestly can't remember anymore). I was taking typography classes and typography terminology was on my mind, so I chose monospaced. It's a good one because I usually get the user name wherever I go, I guess it's not a popular word.

The name essentially has two meanings:
Projects I was focusing on at the time of its conception dealt mainly with print/static matter - Books, posters, illustration and gallery shows.
Within the deeper roots of the name, I felt at the time, it meant "not moving and standing your ground" as an artist. Art is fluid, but within that fluidity there is usually a focal point.

- scarabin0
the scarab is a solar symbol and if i worshiped a power it would be the sun, the oldest god in the world. a lot of the work of the OTO centers around the sun.
my three given names "nathan alan corwin" all end with the sound "in" so i tagged it on the end so it would feel like a name to me.
scarabin is part of a "magickal name" you come up with when you become a magician, which happened in high school when some of my friends and i formed a coven and started doing ritual work together.
turns out it's also the name of a character in "the secret books of paradys" by tanith lee, and is the last name of a french family (at scarabin.com) who made me an honorary member of their clan because they liked my art

- mantrakid0
mantrakid is my performer / stage name.
went by mantra in my teens cuz i made repetitive music and likened it to some form of digitally created mantra. eventually realized there was a shitty english rock band called Mantra, and was also taken so i added the "kid".
I also wanted to be the only thing that came up when you googled the name.

TLDR
his soul was "a veritable prisoner fast bound within his body... and that instead of investigating reality by itself and in itself it is compelled to peer through the bars of its prison."shade is also another name for a ghost. I've survived a few things that should have killed me...
