Rest in peace to a one-of-a-kind creative genius. Strangely I just rewatched Inland Empire last night for the first time since seeing it in the theater, so this is hitting extra hard.

In addition to his incredible film/television work, I'd like to give a shout-out to his other forms of artistic expression which often got less attention. His musical output captured the same unique vibe as his films, for example his album Crazy Clown Time is almost certainly best enjoyed in a smoky room with syncopated strobe lights and patterned flooring. His mixed-media paintings and sculpture were also impressively unsettling.

For Lynch his most important work was promoting his foundation

Here's a nationally televised discussion he had with the President of Ukraine about teaching 100,000 veterans to meditate:

His final public appearance was a video he sent to a fundraiser for his foundation last year:
