CURRENT MISSION

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason."

ABOUT ME

Im interested in how humans are juxtaposing themselves in places.

“Every asylum in this nation is filled with poor souls who simply cannot stand lanolin, cellophane, plastic, television, and subdivisions.”

PHILOSOPHY

I think if i spin really really fast I'll eventually disappear into a thought.

Any genuine philosophy leads to action and from action back again to wonder, to the enduring fact of mystery.
