✈ DEPARTED
4:40AM PUSHBACK
📍 GATE B12, NOWHERE SPECIAL
Cleared for takeoff before the coffee shop even opened. The whole cabin lit up like a MiniDisc.
YOU'RE UP TOO LATE. SO ARE WE.
A dumping ground for stuff found at 3AM: burned CDs, dead formats, cockpit dashboards nobody asked to see, and the movies that got us through it. Nothing here is well organized. Everything here is real.

CULT PICK
NIGHT OPS
Shot entirely in night vision green. Made the whole apartment feel like a bunker for two hours.
REWATCH
REEL TO REEL
A documentary about people who still splice actual film. Slower than dial-up. Worth it.

ABOUT US
Two people, one shared sleep schedule disaster.
the night shift, doing its thing
"just one more frame" — 4:12am, every time
WHO'S BEHIND THIS?
UNSOMNIAC IDIOTS started as a shared folder of screenshots neither of us could sleep enough to organize properly. It became a website because a folder felt too private for this much nonsense.
We collect dead formats, cockpit photography, night-vision anything, and movies that make 3AM feel like a place instead of a time. If it glows in the dark or hums when you plug it in, we probably have a picture of it.
0 hours slept, combined, this week
74 minutes per MiniDisc, non-negotiable
∞ tabs currently open
CURRENTLY RE-WATCHING: old flight-deck footage, night-vision found reels, anything with a scanline in it
ON REPEAT: whatever's on the MiniDisc labeled "SIDE A", 96kbps rips, one field recording of a nebula that shouldn't have audio but does
CURRENTLY RUNNING: a CRT nobody should still own, a webcam pointed at the sky, three browser windows with 40 tabs each
DEAD FORMATS ON THE SHELF: MiniDisc, DVD-R, one unlabeled VHS we're afraid to play

MDJ'Z — Side A
unsomniac idiots / found media
74 minutes of a radio station nobody can identify. Good for 3AM, bad for literally any other hour.
