STORME

I believe there’s worse things to be.

Early life. Storme was born 17 April 1970 in Birmingham England as the eldest child to Alexander and Helena Storme (née Vexley). She attended Trowney’s Public School from ages 4 to 11 where she later continued her education at the prestigious Braewood Hall Academy of Scotland. It was here where she found a talent for film and pranks where she filled her days roaming Braewood’s corridors and with many many detentions. Previous Headteacher of Braewood described young Storme as “possessing a unique capacity of disruption.”

A trained percussionist since childhood, Storme studied drums throughout her time at Braewood Hall, an elite boarding school she attended through her tuition being funded by estranged family.

After completing her A-Levels, Storme downright refused University famously stating “I just got out of a lousy uniform, not exactly desperate to get into another one,” she proceeded to work in an underground pub for two years. It’s rumoured that she would write brief ideas and script snippets on receipts and napkins in said pub.

Career. Storme began working as a waitress at age sixteen, as a way to support herself while attending auditions and quietly writing screenplays. From the period of 1986 to 1989 she worked a string of hospitality jobs in cafes, pubs and diners, where she would eventually meet her now husband at. During this time she juggled performing in small-scale fringe theatre and independent short films, she was cast in roles that leant into her magnetic presence onstage and her growing ability to convey emotional depth with minimal dialogue

Alongside acting, Storme spent these formative years developing her voice as a writer and director, this was when she started the early drafts of what would become to be Storme’s debut feature Bare Teeth.

Known for her skills and precision, she began teaching children how to play the drums in youth centres around East London, finding it a grounding creative outlet amidst the chaos of early adulthood. Former students have spoken publicly about her passionate, no-nonsense teaching style and love for artistic expression.

By the end of 1989, with several minor acting credits to her name and her first scripts gaining traction within film circles, Storme had quietly positioned herself in the fringe of London’s emerging indie cinema scene.

She later completed her underground student film God’s Lonely Children in 1987, a grainy emotionally raw portrait of girlhood that circulated privately among film school networks. Though she has since pulled it from public screening, the film has developed a cult following on tumblr for its unflinching tone and surreal Catholic imagery.

In 1991, she wrote, directed and starred in Angel Face. A short film that was screened at Toronto International Film Festival which drew attention for its visuals and stark emotional palette. This same year, she began pre-production on Bare Teeth.

Released in 1992, Bare Teeth was met with critical acclaim with praise for it’s unique storytelling, emotional ferocity and diverse characters. The film’s success established Storme as one of the defining voices in the future of female directing.

While her primary focus turned to directing and screenwriting, Storme acted less often but still appeared in her own work or in small roles in other indie films. She maintained her drum teaching quietly throughout this time, occasionally mentoring young musicians in the process.

In the years following, she would go on to direct Salt the Wound (1993) and Oasis’ Supersonic music video (1994) along with What Remains (1994). Her films are known to explore themes of girlhood, grief, memory and tension. In 1995 she briefly shadowed David Lynch during production of Lost Highway where the two connected over a shared interest in surrealism and subconscious storytelling. Though she didn’t officially contribute to the film, Storme later cited Lynch as “the first person in Hollywood who didn’t try to tidy me up.” In 2001, Lynch offered her a cameo role in Mulholland Drive

Storme’s work also intersects with Sofia Coppola with whom she shares a deep thematic interest in feminine isolation and emotional subtlety. In addition to Lynch and Coppola, Storme has been linked with the likes of Chloe Zhao, Luca Guadigino and Quentin Tarantino.

Personal life: Gallagher and Storme met on March 21st 1993 whilst Storme was celebrating the rise of Bare Teeth and Gallagher was playing in a venue in Birmingham. Coincidently, the two ended up in the same cramped pub. In Gallagher’s interview with Rolling Stones (2009) he stated that he approached her asking why she wasn’t “off winning a BAFTA or summat?” Allegedly they bickered for some time before going their separate ways.

Feelings arose after a drunken hook-up where the two begin their infamous secret relationship (that wasnt all that secret.) The couple were then later photographed making out inside a telephone box and publicly admitted their affections for one another.

The pair quietly eloped in late 1996 spontaneously in the middle of the night in a small registry office in Manchester. It was rumoured that they made an Elvis impersonator be their witness. Storme wore a thrifted white vintage dress she found in a market that was fraying at the edges and too large for her arms while Gallagher was dressed in a scruffy jacket and a tie that he hadn’t bothered to iron. The elopement was left unknown until Gallagher let it slip in an interview with Storme who proceeded to call him a “thoughtless knobhead” before breaking into a fit of laughter.

The actual wedding took place a few months later in a converted warehouse in East London. Storme arrived in a cream, silk dress with an old lace collar that she was gifted from friend and fashion designer Marjorie Wilkins, said dress was a one of a kind with Wilkins refusing to sell or recreate the dress. The press got wind of the wedding weeks after. Photos of the Gallagher wedding have since been leaked and went viral on Tiktok and Pinterest.

I'm SO sorry if it's annoying but please I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW TO USE UR METHOD. can u explain to me like I'm 5? So many people are shifting from it ALREADY girl you really cooked with it holy shit. And ily !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(for void too, PRETTY PLEASE)

let’s sit criss-cross applesauce in a little academic sandbox and i will explain it like you’re five and i am a mystical muad’dib possessed by roman roy wearing a tiny little cardigan. this is not a method. this is a plot twist. no, okay, it's kind of a method. it's an anti-method.....yk..whatever.

step one : realise you were never here. . . ౨ৎ

you know how when you wake up from a dream, and for a split second you don’t remember where you are??? that’s the glitch. that’s the feeling we’re aiming for. the in-between. the cognitive lag. the loading screen flicker.

you don’t have to do anything. just sit there. or lay. still. soft. weightless. feel your body like it’s not yours. like you’re wearing it the way you wear a coat.

step two : gaslight yourself lovingly. . . ౨ৎ

you’re not thinking “how do i shift?” or “am i getting close?” because you already shifted and you just forgot. you say to yourself. . .

　 ◞ i already shifted. i just forgot. 　 ◞ i’ve been there this whole time. 　 ◞ i don’t have to go anywhere. i’m already there. i just need to remember.

this is not a question. this is a fact. and your brain? your silly little reality-clinging brain? it will start panicking. it will try to prove to you that you are still here. it will start grasping at straws.

let it. let it fumble. let it glitch. don’t fight it. just keep repeating. i already shifted. i just forgot.

step three : watch reality collapse. . . ౨ৎ

how do you know this isn’t the dream? how do you prove you’re still in your cr? your mind will not be able to answer. it will spiral and then… it will give up. it will short-circuit and the illusion will start to fray at the edges. the cracks will spread. and then? oh. moment. oh. you remember. not "go." not "arrive." just remember. you were always there. you never had to try.

step four : the void??? you were IN IT THE WHOLE TIME. . . ౨ৎ

the void is not a place. it is the default state. you are already there.

the only reason you think you’re not in the void is because your brain is obsessed with the illusion of reality. this method forces it into a logical trap.

　 ◞ how do you know you’re not in the void? 　 ◞ how do you prove this isn’t a dream? 　 ◞ what if you just forgot?

and because your brain cannot disprove it, the illusion shatters. and poof. you’re there. floating. weightless. infinite.

step five : do whatever you want. . . ౨ৎ

　 ◞ if you want to affirm something, affirm it. 　 ◞ if you want to shift, set your intention and let yourself go. 　 ◞ if you want to just float in the void and absorb the infinite nothingness, you can.

there is no next step because the void is not about doing. it’s about being.

and that’s it. that’s the whole thing. no trying, no reaching, just a little oh. moment. go play in the dreamscape. you were never here anyway.
