In
January of 2004 I landed in Brooklyn and initiated PLAN
B. What started out as flight from Benzie for a perpetual tour
of art shows transitioned
into a soft landing in the best of cities. I asked
for a sign from the goddess and she delivered with a
fine apartment complete with loving neighbors, perfect
parking, a plethora of subway lines and
the biggest damn food cooperative east of the Mississippi.
Not to mention a prince of a landlord, community
garden,
roof access and a bathtub.
Here
in the city where dreams come true, where the very stuff
of reality can be scooped up in big gobs and shaped into
the future, here am I
- becoming. To be even more myself, to do it all and
not a moment to soon.
Fascism,
intolerance and arrogance are on the march,
the earth is under attack. I cannot help but feel that
my
transformation
corresponds to the horrors
visited on the people. Though I am solo for now I know
there are countless others like me. Being remade, wondering
at our birth.
Of
course I collaborate in the process, being an artist
and all. Creation is my game, my gig. Let's have a peak
at a work in
progress.
What
to do when disaster strikes? Get up out of your
chair for
starters - my manifesto for modern times. Following your
bliss is also efficacious - I map
the multiple modalities of my hearts desire. Meanwhile,
let's make it all into a movie!
Finally, paying the bills by
dancing
with a camera in between the fortunate
chaos required
for discovering my super-powers, (password protected).
