CURRENT MISSION

Be the change & change the be. Smell the flowers, and then turn them into robot flowers, then make flower soup from the dismantled robots. To intertwine with Nature. To Love. To seek joy through specific practices.

ABOUT ME

Raised by a pack of hippies and midwives, JjJJjjjJ Silver has been a go-go dancer, a Taco City bus-boy, The Krazy Ice Kream Man, and a Yoga instructor. Now he designs for Scratch, Skin-to-Nature interaction, and Urban Exploration as a seeker in the LifeLong Kindergarten at the MIT Media Lab. Jay and Jodi run JoyLabs, a place to experiment with rituals, techniques, and tools for experiencing long-term joy.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change & change the be. Smell the flowers, and then turn them into robot-flowers, then dismantle them and reuse the parts in a good community soup. Truth is one, paths are many; so many that there could be one for each person -- so I try to discover my path while taking a look at paths others have taken.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think just the usual: I'd like to connect to people in my hometown and far away, giving what I have to share.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In the past I've ran into all kinds of people and stayed with them. I just know when it's going to make sense, the magic is there and they shoot laser beams of beauty from the middle of their eyeballs. Now I have started to use the website and it hasn't ever let me down.
